I know a company who could physically do it, but I don't think Cisco
would approve. Maybe we could spell it CHisco and call it a CHCIE and
we'd be safe?

Lol. Knock off CCIE plaques coming soon to an ebay auction near you!
:-)

Yeah, which is a retarded answer IMHO. I understand the rebranding, but
on the other hand, I'd be willing to bet that there's enough people who
would want to get this that someone could recast the old medallions with
Cisco's new logo and therefore in compliance with brand awareness....

But why take the simple path? There would be no fun in that.

Question

Can I still purchase the older version of the CCIE plaque?

 <http://ciscocert.custhelp.com/rnt/rnw/img/trnsp.gif>

Answer

No. Cisco Systems was rebranded "Cisco" in early calendar year 2007 and
released a new corporate logo. The old version of the CCIE plaque
contains Cisco's old logo, which is out of corporate branding
compliance. Cisco is no longer selling or issuing the old-style plaques.
