Re: SP exam conditions

If you do find those images, please let me know (unicast). From my
experience, those IOS versions are impossible to download from the cisco
download tool. Only "current" releases and a few older ones are available.
The really old ones they use in the labs are not available for official
download; hence you may not be aware of some of their quirkiness till you
actually come across it in the lab itself.

The exam is not difficult at all, if you know your stuff you will ace the
lab on your home setup for sure; but the caveats in the old IOS they use in
the lab makes it a little bit more exciting.

....speaking from experience.
