Why are vendor neutral certifications such as LPI and Security+ 
considered "no good"?  The vendor specific certifications (e.g. RHCT, 
Cisco, MCSE) may fetch a higher price, but I would think also having the 
vendor neutral certifications help broaden your opportunities.  Why lock 
your self into only one vendor?  I would also think that having these 
less costly certs is also good certification preparation for some of the 
ridiculously expensive certs.
