Hi Michael -
You don't say what kind of computer experience you have, but if you don't work in the field currently and want to work as a computer technician or do computer support, I'd suggest starting with an A+ certification and getting a job as a computer technician. You may even be able to get a job where they would pay for your MCSE or MCTIP (the newer program). Community colleges often offer classes to help you get A+ (or Microsoft certifications) inexpensively.
Also, be aware, many of the quotes I've seen for what people with an MCSE can expect to earn are grossly inflated or refer to people who have an MCSE and other education and experience. If you are really interested in computers and/or electronics, it can be a great path to take, but it is not a fast path to a good career. Additionally, more and more, jobs in the IT field are starting to require a degree. You probably won't need one to start out, but to move up and get better paying jobs, you are likely to need one eventually.
Good Luck!
Julie
