  1. Comment - Study: Linux and Windows Costs Equal

    Precisely. Experience pays. Only this week I interviewed someone who gloated about their "High distinction" scores in "Network Engineering" from the TAFE institution (government run education organisation), and yet when presented with absolute basics of IP addressing and general networking, he was left red faced and promptly removed from my candidate list.

    Scores on a test don't count for real experience.

    That's actually a really arrogent and tunnel vision point of view. You know nothing about the organisation, what they do, where they're located, the business environment they exist in, or pretty much anything at all except what was said in the post.

    That sort of attitude is one of the most irritating and ugly sides of the "Linux community" in my experience.

    It really is getting old seeing that the EU are fining Microsoft again ang again and again. Seems no matter what Microsoft does to satisfy the requirements the EU are not going to be satisfied.
