Just wanted to share some thought on the CCIE preparation cost.
It's getting less and less expencive. Lab workbooks used to be $500 and
more, now they are $300 (IEWB).
Hardware is getting cheaper almost every month, 2612 is under $200.
I remember buying 2610 for $600 a year ago.
My Security Lab was more than $5000 and I had only one 2600 router :-).
Now I got all 2600 and 3620 routers in under $2000.
ATM is still expensive. But I got me CCIE Security with no ATM in my
personal lab.

Definitely CCIE becomes more affordable.

Any thoughts on this?
