just got back from taking both tests. I was a little worried because I got really ill yesterday and didn't take any time at all to reveiw the last few weeks. (of course I've been working on machines constantly in that time span so that probably helps.)

scored 888 on hardware (596 pass score) and 906 on OS (600 pass)

best part about the whole deal is that my work paid the 280 bucks for the testing.

anyone know if I have to renew this or if it stays with me for the rest of my life.

first of all congrats.

as far as I know A+ still stays with you forever with no need to re-certify. It may have changed since I got mine (5 years ago).

Congrats.

I got mine a year after Damned Angel, and at the time they told me it was lifetime certification.

Congrats! And don't worry about updating it. I don't think it'll expire but if it did, by that time you'll prolly have plenty of other certs and won't care about the A+ anymore.

A+ sure is nice to have and the tests are so much easier in retrospect. Good for you.

Ahh yes, I remember the studying for the old test then the current one and I like the current one better because I have never needed to know what size the data path is for a 286.
