An IOS for Self Study

Cisco Considers IOS for Cert Self Study | NetworkWorld.com Community

I thought this was a pretty interesting article that might spark a little discussion around here. I know that many people here are users of Dynamips and may have some interest in this. I think the idea of an IOS for study purposes would be awesome given that they include the features required for study. What kind of thoughts do you guys have on this? I don't know if I 100% believe that everyone is using the IOS' that they receive for legitimate purposes (i.e. not in a lab environment). They mentioned some pretty dubious tactics inside of the article also which furthers my belief that maybe everyone isn't doing things the right way.

I wish I had access to either Cisco gear or an ISO like this. Most of my experience with Cisco equipment was through the Cisco Networking Academy. I know they mentioned Packet Tracer in the article also. I really like Packet Tracer but it isn't quite the same as being on live equipment.
