I think this is a really cool thing they're doing in improving A+ Certification.

I personally think that CompTIA is crippling the A+ certification a little bit by segmenting it the way they are. Right now you can say "I'm A+ certified", and everyone knows exactly what knowledge you have, but someone with the 2006 cert will say "I'm A+ certified", and the response will be "So, what area are you certified in?" It's no longer a universal cert, which devalues it some in my eyes.
