Well Gav, depends how many people are routing (sorry trip, stealing your joke like that. )for me to do it. lol

Only joking, I get little enuff respect as it is, i don't need to be putting pictures of me drinkin coktails on the net. lol

 

what on earth is wrong with cocktails?
they go down far better than bear, come in 8 pint pichers and have a your daily suger boost in every mouthful,
bloody great i say

had a picture of me at belushis in Covent Garden with a picher of yellow and a pitcher of red cocktails, straw in each, swiggin em down together one birthday lol

 

Haha - my kinda birthday I'll actually be legal at my next one too! What's your fave cocktails - gimme some advice! I had a mix of Baileys, Smirnoff Red and something else at Frankie & Benny's.... but the vodka taste was too strong.

 

Do you really want me to answer that! lol

Only joking, just not my kind of thing, I'm an all signing, all dancing, party loving beer monster.

 

....and with that, yet another CertForums thread disappears into an alcoholic haze .....

 

says the guy who drinks 2 VBs a thread ;)

spent 100 quid between three of us in TGI Fridays in picidilly on wednesday too
ofcourse most of that was also on cocktails ;)

 

Heh, always a nightmare deciding what kit to buy.

My CCNA/DA 'lab' consists of:


3 x 2503 routers (soon to have 16MB DRAM upgrades)
1 x WS-C1924F-EN Switch


Hope that's adequate for my needs....

 

Sounds good to me Where did you get the switch, and how much did you pay for it?

 

ebay!

 

Where would we be without Ebay?! I got my routers, a 2501 and a 2503 from Ebay, for £65 each. I think a 19x switch will be a bit more than that though...

 

£113 inc delivery mine was with enterprise software. A TRUE bargain!!!!

 

im still bitter at ebay for the time i lost out on a 20k VPN concentrator because some git put his first bid in the last 20 seconds of the auction, that was just annoying as hell lol

to get out of this ebay should have random auction finish times within a one hour period of the supposed finish, that way people cant just bid in the last 20 seconds without the original bidders noticing and being able to attempt to re bid

 

But that's the best bit of Ebay ;o) - everyone sitting there at the last few seconds in a bidding war - and with a 4mb connection I usually win *evil laugh*

BTW - hi Phoenix! How are you? xx

 

lol talk about a slow response, check the date on that last post
funny you dropping by, i sent you a mail this morning lol

hows the studying going? done your NA yet? or still doing all that other school stuff?


and besides, bandwidth is irelevant, its all about latency and the two are not directly connected
4mb adsl has higher latency than 512k cable, and a 155MB SONET connection is 'teh daddy' as i like to say
theres my techy babble to keep the topic on track, or i'd face Si's topic split wrath once again

 

Lol well I only just got the email! And I am very very very pleased to say I'm now CCNA certified!! Passed a week ago, although I admit it was my second attempt. But anyhow, woohoo! I'm getting interviews now in some schools to start this September I might have a look at some places up in London though since pay is better.

Oh you and your latency! Well it may not have impressed you, but to any non-geeks, saying I have 4mb 'net is very impressive! Ok I'll reply to your email then, can be off topic there. xx

 

Yeah, haven't had a chance to do much recently other than cram useless equations into my brain... It's really opened doors now though, I have lots of interviews lined up and I've been offered three jobs already! I'm hoping to find a company that will let me keep training though, get the 'NP. xx

 

Great news, Sam - nice one, well done !!!

Can we offer you a celebratory VB ?

 

Thanks Oh believe me I had several celebratory vodka shots, and a celebratory hangover ;o) - why isn't there a winking smilie??
