Sorry, I really did know that. I guess I've been studying too much today;

FYI - there aren't 6700 CCIEs, the numbering started at 1024, so there are
around 5700......

While we're on the subject of CCIE numbers, I thought I read something
recently that about 4000 of the ~6700 CCIEs worldwide actually work for
Cisco. Can anyone verify this? I'm not sure where I saw it.

Subject: CCIE Growth rate.....
If anyone is interested, I'd be happy to collect CCIE dates from anyone who
wants to send me their CCIE # and their date attained.
I'll compile the information into a graph that I'll post out on the web.
(Maybe Paul can put it in the GroupStudy site?) Some simple extrapolation
ought to show how fast the CCIE community is growing.
If you're interested, send me your CCIE number and date attained :
franjime@cisco.com. To keep down traffic, DON'T send it to the ccielab
group mailing list....
