Re: Cisco Announced change to R&S

Hey Scott.

Thanks for making sure the facts got sorted from the fiction on this
thread. :-)

One thing I am really excited about is the fact that the CCIE Written
(including the upcoming new blueprint) will finally be in line with
the Lab Exam more closely.

As you know, I was always a bit annoyed with things like MPLS being in
the written and not in the lab. :-)

Warmest Regards,
