I agree about the interface - very ugly, but not so frustrating you
can't live with it.
IMHO the assessor lab is very worthwhile. I haven't done any of the
other vendors assessor-type labs, but this one was top notch.

I'd like to add to this without breaking NDA. I took the 2.0 recently to
see if 4 switches were present, and get a feel for the requirements. I
can honestly say that the interface was less than great. Personally I
didn't really care for it either. I would much rather have a term server
and my Ctrl^6, I did however feel like the questions and requirements
were very very similar to my lab experiences. What I can say that I
learned out of it is do no more or less than what is required.
Overall I felt very similar time constraints and money leaking out of my
wallet as the CCIE lab, and I though that was priceless. It really makes
you think twice about being ready. Anyone with some extra cash and
looking to compliment the IE NMC and other vendors labs should give it a
shot.
FWIW
