After a nerve-wracking wait for my score on the test computer, I was pleasantly surprised to see that I recieved a 713 on the OS, which was much better than I had anticipated. At any rate, I guess I'll make my own topic just like everyone else over here and announce my certification (passed the Hardware the previous week)!

Thanks to the site, especially, as the practice exams and the links were invaluable. Now on to Security+ and possibly MCSE...
And, just as a side note, what does the "Processed" status for your Cert Kit mean?
