I checked out this site.  I really don't have a problem with renting 
rack time, but the home page starts off with a schpiel trying to 
convince the reader that it is much more economical to rent rack time 
than buy your own equipment (a self serving statement).  They even go so 
far as to tell you that you could possibly spend up to $25,000 for lab 
equipment - a laughable statement, to say the least.  
In reality, it's much more economical to buy your own equipment because 
you'll get most, if not all, of your money back when you re-sell it.
Unless these rack rental places are planning to give users refunds after 
they get their CCIE numbers, the math doesn't add up.
My philosophy:  Buy your own equipment and rent some rack time to do ATM 
and Voice.  It's much cheaper.
