It's funny how Cisco doesn't care about peddling garbage to its most elite
soldiers. Don't you guys think that people in the CCIE program might be
looking here and realizing people are ticked off that Cisco is devaluing the
certification in small ways like giving us crappy looking paper certs and
plaques? It really is bad business. Image is important.
