Re: Benefits of choosing a Cisco gold partner company.

I have to disagree with your statements. Normally i see the real CCIE at
Gold partners because they do the work lol an dyou see the paper CCIE at a
large company because they do not know any better. Maybe it is different
where you live but that is what I see. I am not trying to argue just my
experiences. Maybe they got there gold because the rented a cert but they
don't send those guys out. They would lose business quick.
