Career? What languages to learn?

[Mike R]

Hi all. I have been given $4000 from the state of NJ to go to any
technical school of my choosing. I am thinking about taking up
programming. I am also thinking about Network admin(MCSE). I already
have an A+ certification. A few years back I took a class on Solaris
administration, but dont remember much. The class was paced to quickly
and the teacher sucked. Really didnt get a chance to put that unix
stuff to practice. I work in Manhatten as a hardware tech. I mostly
fix printers and that really sucks. So I am in the process of deciding
what to do with this $4000. Do anyone have an idea of what programming
language is hot right now? What are companies looking for? What can I
take a course on and get in the door? Any help would be really great.

Java, C# and C++ are the most widely used application programming
languages. PHP, ASP and SQL are common web languages.
