RE: CCIE Amnesty?.....can we end it.....

Darby......

Can we let this go now? Seriously, I mean this in the best way, but
truly the origins of this board were for CCIE lab study. In fact, unless
it has changed, it used to be required that you a) were a ccie or b) had
a lab scheduled.

I know lots of storage has been wasted telling you that realistically if
you spent one tenth of your time actually focused studying vs.
writing/blogging/waxing prosaic, you'd have been an RS by now. I don't
think you have taken a lab in 3 years and hence I simply can't
understand your deep concern with all things CCIE. CCIE amnesty, demise
of vendors, etc) I know you have purchased every lab product ever
produced and been to every bootcamp ever given, so you have a vested
interest I guess, but I can't see how even the current amnesty issue has
anything to do with a non-ccie.

All that said, sometimes you actually respond to technical questions and
that is fine. Personally I usually follow GS just to keep updated on
things, but mostly go elsewhere these days as there is very little voice
discussion here. (current track I'm working on)

Just my $0.02.

Paul (#16842 RS/Sec)

I think I mentioned this earlier.

Cisco is big enough to be vocal when they need to be.

It does not serve any headhunter for Partners to make deals with CCIE's
or
other Cisco or even non-Cisco types directly.

Again consider the source.

Cisco is a multi-billion dollar company the last time I checked...
(well I
did not actually look but I know I've helped send quite a few millions
their
way this past decade).
