I guess if they want to raise the price that is fine, but what stinks is that people
that already signed up with the understanding that they would pay $1000.00 USD at least
28 days before the lab, are now told they have to add another 250.00 bucks, unless they
can scrape up the cash before March 31. Cisco needs to work focus on the stability of
their product line instead of trying to make a few bucks on lab candidates. Core
routers
are being replaced by Junipers more and more, looks like it is time to get cracking on
that JNCIE.
