Its easy to pass the tests without any hands on, but you won't be better off for it. It's really up to you, and what you want to gain. If you want to master the subject matter, hands on experience of some type is a must. But you need not spend gobs of cash. I have put together a smallish lab (4 2500's and 1 2600 and 1 Pix so far) for ~$3500. Even with a switch it will be less than 5K, which isn't bad at all. I think.
