Michael Melby posted his concerns over which PC to buy after graduation, in
order to be a successful contractor.
When I was in school, not too long ago, I was told that if you wanted to be a
contractor, it was best to build up your experience and knowledge of the market
and the corporate world with a couple of regular, full-time jobs first. Is this
not true? Was it ever true?
