It's not like the CD is the only thing we will have access to in the
lab. Everyone keeps forgetting to mention the configuration guides(IOS
12.1 Docs).
The Cisco Practical Studies book in its boilerplate instructions in it
scenarios that are meant to simulate the exam specifies that you can use
the CD and the configuration guides (the configuration guides are part
of the 12.1 IOS doc set. The other part is the command reference part.
For every volume of config guide there is an associated volume of
command reference with more detail).
I bought a set of config guides on ebay for $200 plus shipping and I
have been getting somewhat acquainted with these tens of thousands of
pages. (These are not hard to find at a good price). What would be the
problem with getting very familiar with these printed materials so that
I could use them effectively during the exam.
I understand that the printed docs cover only a small portion of the
material available on the CD, but it is still quite a lot of material,
and in a very usable format. Am I missing something that is a matter of
public record (that is, NOT covered by the NDA)?

Jason,
Resorting to using the search engine during the lab is the CCIE
equivalent
of the "hail mary". You should learn where to find things on the CD
without
having to use the search engine. Also they are probably going to word a
question so that if you search on the CD, you wouldn't find the correct
answer anyways. At least that's how I would write the lab.
