Wondering to build advance dynamips lab

Finished with 8 labs scenario from dynamips IE workbooks and wondering how to build a real lab with dynamips and some switches. Can I make a real lab with dynamips and switch?? yes, I found someone in the forum has already tried with this perfect combination (Passed CCIE Lab, thanks to Dynamips). Using new server from my office, I borrow 4 switches from my friend in my office and try to install them in the rack with the server. After that I buy a quad port ethernet and install to the server.

Preparing CCIE study material & what's on CCIE

First, see what's on ccie. A Blue print of ccie lab exam from cisco.com, know what is covered by ccie lab exam. Join groupstudy, to know experiences from people who are working with some preparations and having some difficulties with what they are facing to the problem while they're studying or taking the real lab exam, finding out how to solve the problem.

Watch CoD from IE and try IEWB scenario step by step, it is very helpful to know and give me very deep understanding about the underlying and the advance technology in ccie lab. There are some good strategy and tips to help in the day of the exam.

Start to make my own lab

Start from making dynamips run in my macbook last year, I could make my 1st dynamips lab in my laptop, it was quite easy to setup good but not powerful enough to build 13 routers with 2GHz processor and 2 G of memory. Tried to do some practice lab refer to workbook and CoD in my spare time, because i wasn't very serious taking ccie lab in the near time. A year after I though I had to go for pursuing the ccie, why ?? because lots of people and some of my friends pursuing it and study very hard. Now they have got their number (congratulations). My dream is to get ccie in the first attempt, hope so :D
