A copy of your book graces my bookshelf (I have to admit that I have not
had a chance to read it yet).  I do not mind paying for the book.  There are
a number of people here financing their own CCIE, it would be nice if the
labs were available in parts (I would be interested in labs 1-10 for
example).
The labs are extensive (having seen Lab 1 as an example) but are they
really worth $650.  After having sold 100/1000/2000 lab sets, it becomes
less and less clear to me why the $650 fee is warranted.  For $650 I can
buy about 10 books that help me prep for my CCIE.  Are the works of
Doyle, Halabi, Caslow, Lee et all now worth as much.  I don't believe
that each lab takes more work that a book such as yours or Halabi's,
the $650 fee may have been appropriate during the boom but
I do not believe that such a fee is still reasonable.
