Not me, I paid alot of $$$$$ And I paid for Marc's labs too, I thought they were great.
It ain't cheap, but what in life that's worth anything is?

Whatever happened to that biggest of ranter's - Mr. PKM??? I never heard Derek Small of fatkid.com whine or complain about anything or anyone - HE JUST DID IT! Jason, is it, remember talking s*** and doing it are two different things! JUST DO IT!!! - quietly please : ) Just the other day I sold a PIX to a guy that told me he was going to build a CCIE Security lab and put it online for everyone to use for FREE. His eye's kind of glazed over when I pointed out the cost of building a full lab, supplying a circuit and the monthly electrical bill for 24x7x365. That was probably the least of his concerns since he claimed to be able to write a 40 page lab in a single weekend and then sell it for a $1000. Although, I thought he was going to cry because I wouldn't take a lousy $100 off the price of the PIX!!! With these type on individuals on the loose I have no worry about an endless supply of work for me....I believe manager's call it - "Cleaning up the corporate network." : ) Eric PS - How many CCIE's on this list got there cert for little or no cost$$$.... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chuck Larrieu" To: Sent: Wednesday, December 19, 2001 6:30 PM Subject: RE: ccbootcamp part 2 [7:29682] > as an FYI, the fatkid labs are FREE > > www.fatkid.com > > many require just three or four routers plus frame switch. you can always > use a hub or a mau instead of a switch. > > the Parkhurst BGP book has a LOT of GOOD practice using just three routers. > > Much of Doyle can be accomplished with just a few routers. > > Imagination and resourcefulness are also free. > > Chuck > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of > c1sc0k1d > Sent: Wednesday, December 19, 2001 3:49 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: ccbootcamp part 2 [7:29682] > > > Good idea...
