The practical (they're trying hard to not call it a lab!) will not be
multiple choice. Multiple choice exams have a statistical chance of letting
a monkey pass them. literally. Believe it or not, it's actually more
probably than winning the jackpot of most lotteries. :) Go figure.
 
Anyway, if people migrate from CCIE to CCDE that should make people happier
'cause we'll have freed up dates for labs! heheheeh...

Hopefully it doesn't end up being an easy brain dump. :) I wonder if
presales guys will be all over this and ditch getting their IEs. Sounds like
a cool track and all. Anyone have any idea how the lab is gonna work?
Mulitiple choice :)
