That's a good point. I had a discussion last week with some CCIEs and other Cisco certified guys about this, and something that we must keep in mind is that Cisco can't be our way of life, but internetworking technologies..It's not the same as Novell, because internetworking tech are standard (most of them) and work on the same way on differnet platforms
So in fact, to have a market certification should not be the most important thing for us.. Maybe the value of these certifications will not be so good in some years..

By the time I got half way through my MCSE companies said there are too many
MCSE's and they were looking for CCNA's.
In 2001 I finished my CCNA and companies responded with "thats all you got?
We're looking for CCNP's now."
In 2004 I finished my CCNP and companies laughed at that. They told me a
CCNP and a 25 cents will get you a pack of gum.
In 2005 I saw some job ads were looking for CCIE's but only if your number
was below 10,000. To humor those idiots I asked them why such a stringent
requirement, they said it was because the CCIE exam has gotten easier to
pass and the newer candidates are not as knowledgeable as the older CCIE's.
I just hope cisco doesn't fade away like Novell did...
