    The DCSE is relatively easy, and as far as I can remeber, it's open book. I work at Dell, but I haven't gotten around to doing mine yet... too consumed with my MCSA. Some of the question ask which way you turn the screw driver to remove the CPU from a laptop, and really granular things like that....
    A+, Network+, MCP, MSDST, MCITP:SA, HDI-SCA, MCTS, ITILv3

    Yeah, it is fairly simple. I have free access through my work, but I'm concentrating on M$ stuff first. Their questions are tricky, but open book removes a lot of the wrong answers. If you know a couple of their laptops, you know them all, the same with desktops and servers. It's all the same company, so there's only a few major changes between the exams. Dell continuously releases new exams, and to remain certified, you have to keep taking them.
    i remain, he who remains to be....
