I would say MCSE 2000 . . . I have never understood the comparison of these two . . . how can you compare a one-test certification to a seven-test certification. A more appropriate comparison would be CCNP vs. MCSE. In that case, I would go with CCNP, but even then they are in two totally different areas.

I totally agree with the above CCNA vs MCSE, MCSE is better to have but CCNP is a different story.

 hmmmmm
Comparing an MS test to cisco is like comparing apples and oranges. MS exams are very easy and people favor it ofcourse.
The ccna exam is more intense than any MS exam or N+. Eventhough the ccna is 1 exam it covers more in that 1 exam than MS covers in its mcse. I use to be an MS person but once you open a cisco book you see how difficult cisco books get and how ms does not come even close.
Experience is key, without it = difficult to land a job.
just remember that cisco is the internet and MS maybe holds 20% of existance on the net, unix,solaris,linux hold more on the production line 
All top Isps use cisco routers.

Cisco exams are a lot more difficult than Microsoft. When I walk out from the exam site after taking a Cisco exam I drive home and flop into bed!
I believe you should have a combination of the two. A CCNA goes very nicely with a MCSE.
Get your MCSE FIRST. Then go for CCNA.

My vote and what I believe is MCSE. Cisco is a true company that supplies us with many things on the market. But MS own close to 88% of the market. And it seems unlikely that they are ever going to fold

I respect CCNA more than MCSE. Anyone can easily get MCSE. CCNA is not like that. You need to understand at least a minimum.
Job Market wise, MCSE may be upper because of the installed base of Win2000 and also we do not need a lot of router configuration.
I wish Cisco makes routers the way MS makes software. :buggy.
Then a lot of CCNA will have happy jobs.
