CL: I got curious, and did a quick check of the San Jose Lab myself. The R&S lab is booked solid until April 2003, with the exception of a single open date in early February. CL: usually there are last minute cancellations, and one can pick up a date "tomorrow" or "next week" if one keeps checking. However, it now appears that the Lab is keeping pretty full. This is interesting, and expected, given the announced Lab changed dues Novemebr 4. People are keeping their pre-3550 date, or moving into open spots quickly, fearing that if they wait they will get nailed if they don't. CL: I don't have time to fool around much more today, so I can't check the other locations. > > My $0.02, > John Dorffler > CCIE #6677 Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=52294&t=52281 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
