Thanks for the links - nice to see I'm now one of over 160,000 MCSE's

...And look Mom, I'm one of the first 40,000 MCSA's

I just added a new bird to my little flock (3 mos. hawkhead parrot- also have a 14 mos. Blue & Gold Macaw) at home, so when the hand feeding is over, I will pick up the SQL books and try to make me a MCDBA before they hit 85,000

Wow me and you both Pav.
I wonder aside from Microsoft, how many people in the world have actually obtained the CCIE.

As for SQL best of luck on that endeavor. I have the exam 228 book from MS, pretty self paced and readable.
It just didn't fascinate me enough yet to ever consider the 229 piece of the exam

I see I'm not the only one interested in the numbers

I think I know where to get the Cisco numbers and A+ as well... brb

Ok, here goes:

Total nr. of A+ certification holders: 400,000+

Total of Worldwide CCIEs: 8578
(Click here to see where they live)

Well at least most of the CCIE's live in USA

Webmaster · November 2002

Yes indeed

but take a look at the nr. of CCIEs in my country... I mean considering the square miles
