Re: CCBOOTCAMP Labs [7:12526] [7:12711]
I have purchased Marc's lab package and Written prep. I have not taken the CCIE Written or the Lab yet, but recognize the value of the materials. I will probably take the class that Marc offers when the time is right. I will also make use of Marc's labs when I need to study ATM and voice technologies as these are a bit too costly to add to my home lab.

Re: CCBOOTCAMP Labs [7:12526]
Not sure why you have to refer to me as a clown. I think our reviews speak for themselves. See http://www.ccbootcamp.com/customer_reviews.htm My 2nd and last attempt was over three years ago just as I started this company and the labs didn't even exist yet. Not everyone passes on their 1st or 2nd attempt. Since then I have focused my efforts in a much less technical role. My company now has several products, CCIE Written prep, CCIE Lab Exam Study Guide, Practice lab Subscription, (5) remote racks, Vue testing center, and a 5-day CCIE Instructor led CCIE class with (6) dedicated PODs (Not the same PODs as the remote racks. Did I do this all myself. No, I hired the talent I needed and got the job done. Maybe you should fly out to Detroit and see our facility before you make judgments about us. We are also working on a CCIE security written, CCIE Security lab subscription, and CCIE Security remote rack. Our company is also a Premier Cisco reseller with IP/Telephony and VPN/Security specializations. I have a CCIE on staff and several others on contract. I have plans to pull some of these contract CCIEs to our staff so we can get Cisco Gold reseller status. I have been too busy building a company to worry about CCIE certification for myself.

Re: CCBOOTCAMP Labs [7:12526]
The labs are a collaborative effort and they do have at least one CCIE on board. You have "heard" that Marc Russell hasn't passed the labs several times. If I tell you to buy Cisco stock right now are you going to do that? I don't know, your post seems to be just an excuse to start a flame war. That's not needed here.

Re: CCBOOTCAMP Labs [7:12526]
I've have heard that the ccbootcamp labs are the hardest and most complete labs available, which justifies the high price tag. Whether that's absolutely true or not, many people use them and feel that they are great tools to prepare for the lab. And you should refrain from calling people clowns on this list. I believe that Marc participates on the groupstudy list, or at least reads it, and at least a few of his friends and associates actively participate on the list. Calling him a clown doesn't make you look very good in this environment. ;-) Actually, I am getting the wiff of a trollI'm not sure, my sinuses are a little stuffed up today, but I'd swear I can smell it John >>> "Yhladi Ghfaskovich" 7/16/01 1:06:45 PM >>> I am looking to start my CCIE study and have done some research on practice labs.
