    Is CCNA for me? (Feedback please)

    CiscoGuy, Thanks! I agree w/you 100% "I would say that CCNA taught me the most in basic networking which is the foundation for all else - I even think Microsoft students (having taken MCSE classes) would be better servered by doing the CCNA first unless they have a strong networking...

    Training Video DVD

    I thought Id throw in my 2 cents. Give www.testout.com a look. I used Learnkey and thought they were very good...but they can't compare to "testouts" cbt's. I used Testout to pass my Security + and scored an 860 of a possible 900. I plan on picking up the CCNA CBT soon along with the Bryant...
