that I've been studying for for the last 2.5 months. Taking it Friday morning, if I pass it, I am gonna smoke something good that night, probably will stop on the way home at Tworld or something. I would ask for suggestions, but I don't wanna jinx myself (it's the old ball player in me). But if by some miracle I do pass, I will make sure to post what I decide on!

    Good luck on your test. I've been using VMware a lot in college this year. All of our Linux Administration and Server 2008R2 courses used VMs for everything. Very interresting stuff. I didn't know there was a certification for VMware.

    Good for you! I'm taking my CCNA soon. Mine expired back in 2006 and a lot of things have changed since then.

    Good luck, and a good smoke for when you ace it! I've got my Pro Tools certifications coming up and I'm hitting the books with everything I've got, save a hammer.

    Yeah, they're several certs actually. all the way up to a data center architect cert...which is where u sit in front of a 4 person board and get grilled for a few hours on a solution you create.

    thanks guys for all the well wishes. Good news is that VMware is having a promo right now w/ a free retake if I fail...so at least I can get a free retake. ($175 per test!)

    I feel ya though, I hate having to pay a bunch of money for tests. When I got my microsoft certs, I had to pay a bunch of money for those damn tests. Good luck.

    Good luck Chris and I hear you on the steep certification expenses. I'm looking at a few things as well, not computer related in any way, hahaha. But were trying to work them into the budget. Its a pain but worth it alot of times. So good luck to you man.

    Tommorrow is the big day eh, Chris? Good luck bro', hope all goes as well as you hope it does. Will this be a new career for you or an advancement in your present one? Whichever it is, here's hoping it's a slam dunk for you sir.

    Thanks for all the well wishes guys, just thought I'd let you all know that I just got back from taking my test and I passed with a 411/500!!! (300 is passing) I told my wife I am stopping on the way home today at my B&M and picking up a Padron 1926 or something even nicer! I welcome suggestions!
