in MCTS / MCITP on Windows 2008 General
I'm really confused which one is valid ? is it true that you can't take 70-640 anymore ?

I live in Lebanon and planning to take the exam there.

thanks for the info

I've read this article but it's old so i don't know if it's still valid

    The 83-640 replaced the 70-640 as soon as microsoft had the test translated (if it needed to be). I've heard that the test with virtual labs is better by several people. You still have a multiple choice portion of the test, but you better have practiced on Server 2008 or you'll have difficulty.
    No longer work in IT. Play around with stuff sometimes still and fix stuff for friends and relatives.

    Easiest thing to do to see if its still valid in your country is to log into your testing center's website and see which one they offer. The 70-640 is no longer valid in English, and you have to take the 83-640.
