this topic of fascination for many often leads to a bit of confusion as well

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/625/ccie/ccie_program/ccie_present.html

shows the number of CCIE's world wide as of 7/31/02

The first CCIE number issued was 1025.  Over the years, some have retired,
some have neglected to recertify ( including Jeff Doyle, last time I
looked )

So according to Cisco's numbers, on July 31 2002 there were 8031 active
CCIE's.

As a sidebar, Terry Slattery, CCIE 1026, tells how he was tested by CCIE
1025 ( sorry, I can't remember the name )
The theory was / remains that only CCIE's should test candidates.

No one seems to know who  tested #1025, nor the criteria used.
