Older, yes, but in my case I surely will not make any false claim as to being more skilled. I've only been using Linux (RHL9 first and now FC1 on one box, soon to install SuSe on another too) for about one year, computers in general for about ten years, but I am 50 and working on some certifications now. Lord knows why I didn't get into computers sooner..... Someone else mentioned "assembly".... Steve Gibson of Gibson Research swears by Assembly Language and I hope to find time to learn much more about it soon. If anyone can recommend some good sources of learning materials, I would be most grateful. Dennis C.
