in CCNA & CCENT
Which IOS versions should I be running on my routers for the CCNA? I have a 2650XM and (2)1760's.

    12.2.X or above,

    to be honest for the ccna the ip base feature set will be plenty, you are only going to need the basic routing protocols, and features.

    But my sugestion is get the highest you routers can handel with the memory they have, and if possible the advanced feature set. this will come in handy for the CCNP and above.

    You'll need 12.4 if you want to play with SDM.

    Because other than SDM, what else do you need 12.4 for?

    But you should always get a router that has MAX memory/flash and has the biggest/baddest IOS Feature Set and latest/greatest IOS Version -- unless it's a newer router and you're planning to buy the IOS upgrade when you need a better feature set and a Smartnet Contract so you can get IOS updates.

    Not at all ;). and yes your right about the SDM, but it was the point about CISCO specifying 12.4 I was agreeing with ;)

    However I do apologise for not acknowledging your correct response. ;)
