FrankBama writes "As a follow-up to the story of a few days ago, Red Hat has started a program in my old hometown. The story's at the News & Record. I love this part '...this training normally would cost more than $10,000. But Weaver students can get Red Hat certification free -- and use it get a job paying more than $30,000 a year right out of high school.'"

      I'm sure you could get 30k a year. Unfortunately the exchange rate is something like 30K Bangladollars = $ 1 US dollar.
