Novell's Certified Linux Engineer

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the not-a-bad-idea dept.

AEnertia writes "Novell have been quick in moving ahead with their recent aquisition of SuSE. I was browsing their site when I found this page describing their new certification (CLE) under their certifications programs. Looks like they are positioning their well respected certification program for their newest asset."

    That this certification is worth more than my SCO Master ACE. Cheers,

    Just one? Might be an uphill battle for Novell then...

    So the first thing that you see when you go to the Novell page is a guy laying on his back, arms cross behind his head.

    Are they saying that we are lazy?

    I was checking the SCO website and came across their "SCO certified IP lawyer" certification webpage.

    What do you guys think? Worth getting?

      Your sentences are far too well thought out & constructed. If you are to spew a steady stream of SCOX solicitor duckspeak, incoherence, bullcrap & FUD, I would suggest intoxication or a partial lobotomy.

      My employer paid for my SCLE (SCO Certified Linux Engineer) and the test went something like this:

      1. You have a network of 90 desktop Linux PCs, 4 dual-procressor Linux workgroup servers, and 1 16-way Linux enterprise server. How much do you pay SCO?

      a) $142,000
      b) $62,000,000
      c) $118,000,000
      d) All of the above

    Ah, the endless loop. When employed, certs are not needed, when unemployed they are not affordable...


    Could-a, should-a, would-a, didn't.

    $2,000 for a five day course!

    Okay, for all (three) of you who don't already know Linux, and who aren't interested in the "Novell" portions of this class, I'll be teaching GNU/Linux for the bargain price of (oh, it pains be to quote a figure so high) only $1,000 for a five day course!

    Step right up!

    If you're a bright class we might even get to advanced topics such as systems administration or software development with GCC and vi!

    Can't Slashdot think up any new jokes? Of course not.

    OK, here's something new...

    Q. Why did the MSCE cross the road?
    A. Someone told him/her to.

    Q. Why did the Certified Linux Eng. cross the road?
    A. Someone told him/her not to.

    (ok ... so only the "/her" part was new)
