RE : change in the CCIE lab exam environment... search is gone----that is not
right.agreed,
I keep the doc cd up when I do practice labs and such, I always try to find
the answer on the cd if I dont know it...before looking at the answer key.

Best way for me was to use it while practicing scenarios!

I totally agree with you,
I never use the search function, I think it slows
you down actually. There is no faster way to find
the info than just knowing where it's at.
I printed out the entire doc cd (12.2, 12.3 and
12.4) and arranged it into 3 ring binders. Then I
went through each and every page...tedius, but I
found it's really the best way to learn.
