I worked Bellsouth before AT&T, got some good training w Nortel stuff, then I went to Tellabs which was booming there for awhile until things went boom. My question is where is the hookup for the Cisco certs or is it possible,(advisable) to get anything from ebay? In that regard, would you want to part with your training material? $
