Snap. Just cant do it. Can work through books quite diligently. But if say the company I work for said "Claws - Program an application that can do this and that but only as long as such conditions are met under these circumstances at this time" then Id be worried bigtime.
Couldnt programme to save my life. Seriously.
3d drawing software, I really want to learn one off them. But I struggle to find any tutorials which are any help. 
I'm going to find a book this month and try again.
and unix, used it a bit and could do the basics fairly easily, but it is so different to windows.
I'm sure there's many more, but those two stand out the most.

AH2, have a look at this site, the video tutorials are excellent - http://3dbuzz.com/vbforum/sv_home.php
For me It'd be programming too, but I'm looking to remedy that

Programming.
I've worked my way around CSS/PHP/HTML but not enough to write my own stuff.

Programming!
Even back in the day of Basic i couldnt do it. I just missed out the programming questions in my higher paper and still passed ;p
Studied C# this year at Uni and found it incredibly difficult, my brain isnt made for programmes.
And Linux, but thats because im a slave to Mr Gates.

Don't know much about unix/linux. I can use Linux, and I do on a regular basis, but when it comes to setting it up I don't really know what I'm doing. I'm sure I could muddle through it if I really wanted to.
Web programming. Not so much that I don't understand it, just that I don't find it interesting at all, so can't be bothered to learn much.
3D modelling software. I had a go with Maya but I didn't get very far. I don't really enjoy it, I'd prefer it if someone else did the artwork and I programmed if I were making a game.
I like hardcore programming in C, Java or similar language. I need to learn C++ at some point though since that's quite an important one.

I'm still working with procedural languages (COBOL, yes you can snigger if you want ), have had a few (half-hearted I admit) stabs at learning OO principles but never got anywhere.
Is it work looking at a particular language to start to with? So I can get working with these fancy new technologies

Object orientated programming. I understand the principles of ii. I understand all about encapsulation, polymorphism, inheritance, classes, attributes etc.
But when it actually comes to doing the programming, I end up with a procedural program.
UML seems to have me stumped too, I can do simple use cases and simple class diagrams but after that. I'm stuffed.
I'm sure it all comes with practice and experience.

I got the hang of OO by doing some modding for UT2004. I never understood it before doing that. Thinking about it in terms of a game makes it easier to understand as it relates more to the real world, eg. a gun is an object, a player is an object, etc.
Plus in the case of making mods, the object heirarchy is already in place so you don't have to design it from scratch.

im an idiot with basically everything computer related. Its quite depressing as it's the thing which interests me most when i get time away from studies and work and friends. Some of you will be able to testify to this, given my random confused threads about stupid things.
