Shun Linux and kiss your job security good-bye,
Shun Linux and kiss your job security good-bye This is the first part of a two part series on Robin Miller's book "Point and Click Linux: Your guide to Trouble-Free Computing"
Robin's book focuses on how to build Linux skills and help lead a company and it's users into using Linux.
I like the general idea in that Admins who have focused solely on Microsoft and if they have any Microsoft certifications they will find themselves lost in the upcoming switch over to Linux. I personally don't think there will be a massive switch to Linux on the desktops anytime soon but I do believe that with Microsoft's move away from Win NT 4.0 there will be more of a move on the back end towards Linux due to the inherent security features that Linux has over Windows.
Companies who have held onto a system as long as they have with Win NT 4.0 have to like the idea of Linux in that it is easier to upgrade, secure and expand. Linux is a networking Operating System and this is where Linux will initially excel.
