Okay, as much as I love working with Networking components, I realize I don't know too much about computer themselves. I don't know what to look and shop for when building a computer expect for the basics. Anyways, I was always curious with programming, but I have no idea where to really start. I know there are different languages for certain programs, but I want to learn the basics of software engineering and programming. What would be a good resource to look into and a good language to start with?? I always heard C+ is more user friendly, another thing does HTML count as software as well??
Sorry for my terminology, I more familiar with Networking then I am with Hardware and Software terms. Thank you for your time and help.

If you're going to be doing Windows administration then I recommend that you learn PowerShell. UNIX administrators should know Perl or Python depending on what is available on their systems.
IOS has actually got a scripting engine built into it and it uses Tcl. -

As you can see I truly don't know where to start, you just threw in a bunch of Languages that i have heard for the first time. How dose a mark-up language differ from a programmable one. Thanks for the reference of the other languages, i'll take a look at them. -

The BB Code tags that this forum supports would be a markup language. It just describes the data.
If you put "HTML programmer" on your CV/resume, you're not going to get favourable responses from most real programmers... -

for me, c was a better start. c isnt object oriented so going from oo to non oo might be an interesting step. c set the stage for the oo items. c++ -> .net/java/etc makes more sense to me.GO TEAM VENTURE!!!!
