Wow...this is pretty much a dream come true. Options

[*mipadi*]

As some know, I'm a computer science student. Next semester, I'll be a first-semester senior, which means I can take some pretty kick-ass CS courses. I might get permission to take a course in computer security. Why? Well, for one, the professor is the best CS professor at my university, but there's an even better reason: it's the final project for the class.

I talked to the prof about the final project. Basically, shortly after the midpoint of the semester, the class is split into small teams. Each team gets a computer. The computer is set up on its own private network. Each team gets to pick a distribution of Linux to install on its computer.

Each team gets a few "free" weeks to secure its box, and then...yep, you guessed it. A few weeks before the end of the semester, it becomes open season on the network: Each team tries as hard as it can to break into the other teams' computers and trash their machines.

This is the sort of thing geeks dream about as children.

Problem is, I don't know if I can fit it into my schedule...but I'm going to try to find a way.

Since I have no knowledge of computers whatsover, I'd just kick it for a while until it breaks..


But that sounds cool. I'd totally try as hard as I can to fit that into my schedule if I were you.

Actually, it does seem like a dream come true.
