Ten and counting.

One exam down and passed!  I am now MCP closer to my goal of having more letters after my name than I have in it.  (And I don't just mean "Alasatyr".  I mean my proper name, first and last.)

Having spent four years at Auckland Grammar School (motto: Per Examina Ad Augusta) and then far too many years at university, I have taken more exams than I care to count.  So it means something when I tell you that Prometric are the Best. Exams. Ever.  The reason:  you get your results in three seconds!  Seriously!  You hit the button marked "finish test," it checks to make sure you really mean it, the screen goes blank, and then it comes up, "The pass mark was 700.  You got 905.  Congratulations, you passed!"

I don't think I could have survived waiting two weeks for the result of that exam.  There was a fair amount of... well, let's be generous and call it Educated Guesswork, shall we?  (Who says exams aren't like the real world?)

Anyway, next stop:  CCNA!

In other news, the webcomic "Basic Instructions" is most excellent.  Go read it.
