[ED: This article and others from SYS-CON have come under the scrutiny of our editors. In fact, a message to me from one of our top people said that this article was pretty good but if he were Editor-in-Chief, he would nuke it because of the sound.

In fact, I feel the same way. We thought we would leave it up to you to decide. Should we nuke SYS-CON articles because of the streaming content? Or should we put up a warning? -tadelste]

The LinuxWorld SYS-CON newsdesk writes; "I've been suspicious of professional certification exams for a long time. Part of it is that I've heard a lot of flack about Microsoft certifications. Specifically, that the best thing they test is how well you study for Microsoft certification. For that reason, I've resisted taking any of the Linux certification exams. Although I have 15 years worth of experience in Unix-related operating systems, I've always suspected that I wouldn't do well on a certification exam because I wouldn't have studied the specific exam prep materials."
