Just to add to Jtb's comments "In my [more than 15] years of experience working as a corporate customer of Microsoft, I've found that they prefer we use their products; but they are adept at supplying complex business and technical designs that meet the needs of people who don't care what brand is on the package as long as it meets their requirements for cost, functionality, and delivery schedule..." Agreed. In MS highest exam the MCA isn't one of the basic requirements?Anonymous

Don't worry, there's enough kool-aid to go around.Anonymous

No clarification on my blog post should be needed. If anyone had reasoned through things you would realize that a beta exam has had no one take it yet, so a braindump (if anyone was dumb enough to rely on that) wouldn't even be possible. In addition keep in mind what beta exams are: they are a test to see, statistically, how difficult the exam should be overall, and the relevance and accuracy of each individual question. Regardless of the needless hubbub over an inocuous reference to a braindump, this is an acheivement for any out there who have done it. The brain dumps comment was a reference to the epidemic of that sort of thing we had years ago where folks would read a braindump and then take an exam. Only a very ignorant person would think I condone that. If anyone out there reading this was around in the industry then you know what I am talking about. I think some folks are a bit ready to jump to conclusions.Anonymous

They still use braindumps, jump to conclusions, and drink the kool-aid!Anonymous

Just me and Tim, sitting here, giggling our way through braindumps... wacked on Kool-Aid and mushy bananas.... Another day at Microsoft.
