Do You Have What It Takes To Pass Your CCNP ISCW Exam?
 The
road to my career in Information Technology started with a simple little action
– copying the contents of one floppy disk to another. Simple enough, right?
I remember typing in the “copy *.*” command and wondering how the computer knew
what to do when I typed that in.
Later, this little thing called “Windows” came along, and you could now actually
click on icons to get things done.
I found that I still liked working from the command line, and through my 10+
years of being both a Cisco certification candidate and instructor, I’ve found
that most Cisco admins like the challenge of working at the command line.
Why? Maybe we just like the challenge. After all, anybody can click on a desktop
icon, right? ;)
As I often tell students, the exam will have multiple choice answers, but when
you’re at the command line, you either know how to do the job or you don’t –
there is no “A”, “B”, “C”, or “D” to choose from.
The command line isn’t going anywhere, but the use of GUIs to configure Cisco
routers is becoming more and more common. That includes the popular Security
Device Manager (SDM), which also happens to be a major part of the CCNP ISCW
exam.

Vista is for Suckers and Mac Users are Better Than You
 The
title of this article seems to be the underlying theme in every “Mac vs. PC”
commercial. The ones that have drawn my attention recently are the commercials
targeting Vista. You’ve seen those commercials haven’t you?
Most of them go something like this:
Mac: “Hello I’m a super hip, fun, exciting Mac for young people
that want to improve their lives.”
PC: “And I’m a stuffy, suit and tie wearing, dinosaur PC that
can only do calculations and spreadsheets. I suck the fun out of your everyday
life.”
Mac: “Hey PC, what are you doing over there?”
PC: “I’m just wondering why Vista has so many bugs.”
Mac: “Yeah Vista is pretty bad and nobody likes it. It doesn’t
work for a variety of reasons that I won’t list here. Don’t you wish you were a
Mac so you wouldn’t have to wear a suit and tie and be so boring?”
PC: “Hey, Vista may not ever work and Macs may be better than
PCs and I may dream about being a Mac but … wait a minute! Oh, you outsmarted me
again Mac!”
Mac: “That’s why PC users are so dumb, because PCs are dumb.
Come to an Apple store … bring money.”
I may be paraphrasing a bit (are you picking up my sarcasm here?) but I’m a
little disturbed at the way Apple looks at the consumer.
Apple assumes that the average consumer will look at these commercials or any
publications from the mainstream media and come to the conclusion that Vista is
a hassle. Vista has a negative stigma, mostly among consumers that don’t know
anything about it.
