Certs are overrated.

Seriously, here in the Midwest they want an MCSE for !#$@%&! Level 1 tech support anymore. Don't know about you but I'm not paying $1500 for a cert that'll pay me $11 an hour.

That said, CCNA and MCSE are the generic one-size-fits-all certs [EDIT: Okay, technically they're not "generic", but you know what I mean] which I see asked for most often. I might be cutting myself out of the loop but right now I'm sticking with CompTIA and if someone else wants something different they can pay for it.
