And bitter.

Not a good look.

Paying USD $15.00 for a digital certificate is just plain daylight robbery. I feel the same way about the hard copy as well. I mean come on ... we paid for example USD $ 600 for a CCNP (assuming you take the 4 paper path and each costed USD $150.00) and that's a lot of money! Could Cisco just give the certs instead of charging them? Don't they know that by introducing a fee, they are giving the impression to people that they are just in for the cash and not the quality of their certs???</p> <p>On the other hand if and when I pass my CCIE, I would be happy to part with USD $100.00 for a REAL bronze plaque although if it's in gold I would have no objection :-).</p> I second your opinion Brandon.
