Hi,

LPI looks like it may be quite a useful addition to the University 
degree I'm taking and have planned in the future to try getting some 
certification if possible. I have a few of questions for you or anyone 
really. How highly is this certification held? (MSCE is quite common 
these days whereas I've read that RHCE is very hard going) Where does it 
fit in, in terms of difficulty, compared to other such certifications? 
(i.e. Redhat, Novell, Cisco, MSCE). Also how expensive is it?

Thanks,

Simon
