Man, what a paranoid opinion...
People still misunderstand the meaning of free software. Using a Red Hat Linux is as dangerous as using Windows OS.
There are no hacker-made Linux anymore: everybody use well-supported distros like Red Hat, Mandrake, Conectiva. You dont have to worry about alien, russians, nazis, hackers or even Bill Gates breaking through your box!
By the way, is there something that assures you that Microsoft does not collect users information? Think about it!
Think that people use Windows to access Internet for more than 6 years. Remember "Conspiracy Theory", with Mel Gibson. Are "they" tracking everything you do since then? Boooooooooooo!
You got right to the point.
Certs will never replace a good grad, it's just a way to show an expertise in an specific set of programs.
The cert followers seems to ignore that without CS and hard study not even Windows would exist (that wouldn't be so bad...). Worst: most people just install and use a Linux distro, but who assembles it? Guess who!
My point is: if you love computing, like I and many people around here do, you fell that a BCS is that step ahead you need.
