I deal with SNA and Token Ring on an almost weekly basis. A number of big
banks still have this as the mainstay of their network. IPX is still out
there in hundreds of thousands of networks and ATM is a major player as
well. Just because "you" don't deal with these on a regular basis, does not
mean they don't exist. If you want the certification, then you must learn
to deal with what's out there - and all of these are out there in big
numbers.

When I disagree with a rational man, I let reality be our final arbiter; If
I am right, he will learn, If I am wrong, I will; one of us will win, but
both of us will profit.
