I know some folks who are moving to RHEL from older versions of linux 
and are considering it instead of commercial unices.

I have both Solaris and RHCE certs. I like them because I'm self taught. 
The certs let me know I've gotten a fairly well rounded education along 
the way. The RHCE challenges me each time I see something I think I 
should know better and keeps me driven to maintain my skills.

Also looks nice on the business card when you go job-searching.  :)

ciao!
