lol!

Where do you get your stats from, people that work for cisco will tell
you that ccie certification group is one of the smallest groups in
cisco.

Don't forget that the more ccie they have, the more projects they push
into the industry and hence, the more equipment they sell. Imagine how
many cisco products/projects each ccie signs off in his/her own lifetime
... Do the maths and I will do the judgement!

Though from Seonghui comment, they make at least $20million a year on
CCIE, that is probably what a group of CCIEs can make them in weeks!

Many Thanks

Cisco makes more money from CCIE lab exams than selling routers and
switches!
I think they should stop producing routers and switches and produce more
lab
exams instead! ;-)
