New InfoSec forums and moderator!

As you may have noticed, we have a couple of new forums:
(ISC)² SSCP and CISSP
EC-Council CEH and CHFI
Check Point CCSA and CCSE
These forums are now part of a separate category called InfoSec and also contains this "Security Certifications" forum for general infosec topics and questions related to other certs. Please note that Security+ and CCSP questions should be posted in their corresponding forums in the CompTIA and Cisco categories.
In addition to the new forums, please welcome Keatron as a new moderator for these forums. Most of you probably already know Keatron from being active in several forums, and he's been helping me out with the Security+ TechNotes behind the scenes for quite some time. Needless to say we are very happy to have Keatron on board!

You have done again a wonderful job putting this together. I mean the new InfoSec section!!! Plus I see Keatron is now a moderator.........Good Choice!
Thanks for keeping this site to its max!!!!!!!!!!!!
I passed this exam early last year. It's a decent introduction to tools. Even though some of the ones you'll get on the cd are out of date, you'll come out knowing a lot more about where to go get the latest stuff. If you've got the drive to dig deeper and go past the material they give you, it can be a very great reward. Don't plan on coming out a penetration tester, but you will come out knowing the types of things you will need to master in order to get there. Good luck and have fun with it!!
Regarding to computers how many resources do you need?
Are two enough? one with vmware?
Can you work in your daily working machine with no risk for these tests?
thank you!

Eventually you'll want to get access to some routers so that you can look at sam spade and some of the MIB walking tools for enumerating SNMP enabled devices. But this can come a little later in your practice.
