Hi Chuck et all,
The more and more I read about your postings, the more confident I feel
about the lab. As I have heard/been told, that the lab is just a mere exam,
half of the configs. which you will not see in the real world. As Chuck so
clearly puts it, if all you want is to pass the lab, read and Memorize
different configs, and practise, practise, practise. This I am sure is
enough to pass the lab-just pass it.. and get that magic number!
Peace!!
Anyone feel differently?? :-)
