I didn't know the NT4.0 exam was still offered. Did you know that certs expire after 3 years? I have had previously CCNA, MCA, and I still hold Linux + , (since it doesn't expire). Making 62K yr. If you keep current and don't sell yourself short, you'll make alot better money. Location will have a big impact also. If I were to move say 4 hours south to the Twin Cities Metro area, I would be in the 90K year.

These figures are way off. I've been a network admin certified under MCSE NT4.0, for the last several years, and have yet to see this kind of money. These amounts are way off, and it sends the wrong message to people who are trying to get certified. You are lucky to see $42k - $55k, even with certification. I'd really like to know where they are getting these figures from.
