to be good with Linux/unix you need to think like a developer … its a power tool. .. people keep trying to dumb it down and suggest its a costumer OS (hi Ubuntu users!!) Which when done well ( hi Ubuntu users !!) is a good thing.

.. go work for a small-mid size IT company who invest in this themselves. It will be more rewarding. the micro/small/charity route its a serious waste of time if your doing it for commercial ends.
