RE: which is better PE or MBA
Personally, I would get my PE even if I decide to go to school for an MBA and be transferred into management. To me, having the PE is just the final accomplishment to say all the years in school and the field gaining engineering experience have been worth it.
RE: which is better PE or MBA
That said, I do not regret having my PE. It does validate your accomplishments as an engineer, and it gives me a good reply to any young smug snot-nosed PhD. :)
As far as MBA's go, I'll quote the man in black " . . .Come to the dark side, Luke."

I am also going to concur with bradh. The only time most people, other than the "haughty PE's," care about who has a PE is when an accident occurs and fingers start pointing.
Plus, it's fun to snub the PhD's.
