  Consider this - would you rather be certified in technology that is seven years old, or in technology that is a little over two years old and that many businesses are adopting?

  I think on balance I agree with Charles. I've just been working with a client who uses Windows 7 as their main desktop and server operating system. I appreciate that Windows XP is still much widely used than Windows 7. I reckon that many large organisations will be rolling out Windows 7 now it's proved to be stable and I also reckon people with Windows 7 certification will be able to charge a premium.

  Also, note that the MCSDT certification along with the associated exams will be retiring next June.
