EXACTLY my point. I have a CS degree, and yet, I did not know how to check
Red Hat service dependencies, (like Solaris has). If I had bothered becoming
a Linux engineer and obtaining a CERT, I would have learned that. I only
hold a CISSP, MCSE & PM, so my expertise are in those fields. 

Of course, I'm not a Red Hat engineer. I'm the owner and hire all the Red
Hat engineers (22 total on payroll). 

All of my most successful engineers have certs and so far none have a CS
degree. 

It's great that you have "30 years experience" and I would suggest
furthering your career by obtaining certifications.

Well, that's the joy of the business world--you're getting opinions from two
opposite camps.  Both, apparently, own their own companies, and both are the
kind of people you'll have to face when seeking a job.

I won't call "Angie" names or denigrate her opinion.  But I will say that
I've been in this field for 30 years, a consultant for most of them at
places ranging from Bell Labs, Rockwell, Honeywell, World Book Discovery,
etc. on down to startups.  Look at who wrote 'cut' and 'paste' for Linux.

So while she may not think much of my opinions, I will state that they're at
least as valid as what she's spouting.

One thing you should notice that we both agreed on is that real problem
solving is a major and key underlying thread.  The ability to reliably and
accurately assess a situation and logically analyze how to resolve it trumps
any memorized list of answers.
