MCP+I
This updates the article at:

MCP+I for Not Yet Techies

This certification is no longer being offered by Microsoft.
It dates back to the days when Microsoft was struggling to
integrate the Internet into its business strategy and was
still fighting the browser war with Netscape.

Now it apparently does not fit into their strategies. That
of course doesn't mean Microsoft does not consider the
Internet (that's what the "I" stands for) is important.
They consider it so important they've integrated it into
their technologies and certifications throughout, thus
making it unnecessary to have a special certification for
it.

The pages describing this on Microsoft's site date back
to 2001. The good news is that if you did get the
MCP+I certification, you're still considered certified,
which in practice means you can put it on your resume
and take advantage of the other benefits you get directly
from Microsoft.

From what I understand, this particular one never had much
market value to aspiring (or established) techies anyway.
