Why Spend Money for Linux Training?

06/13/2008  I
Relevance: 8.58
As I was perusing the Linux forums this morning, I found a thread that was started by someone who was interested in learning about Linux server administration. He mentioned a (ahem!) certain commercial website that specializes in selling Linux training courses. His basic questions were,"Does anyone know anything about this outfit?", and"Are their training courses worth the price?" A few people answered positively, but a few others, who hadn't had any experience with this site, answered with"Why spend the money, when there are lots of free training courses on the Web?"

Where are the Linux Workplaces?

09/22/2006  IIIIIII
Relevance: 7.16
When I was in college, lower level CS course assignments were done in DOS PC's networked through Novell Netware. Once a student got to take higher level courses, he/she was given an account into one of the department's SunOS Unix servers. Most students from basic courses suffered from"Unix envy", the Sun boxes were perceived as being much more powerful than the humble PC's. As a I entered the workplace, I brought my college perception that Unix workstations are more powerful than PC's with me.

Relevance: 4.90
This week I'm going to cover some of the things they don't teach you in systems analysis and design courses. If you recall, the aim for the project I was working on was to convert an old _ and I mean very old _ Excel 4 application (before Visual Basic) and convert it to a MySQL and PHP based application.
