I've seen both sides of this when it comes to Linux, but for the most part have found folks pretty helpful whyen I've needed help. On a VERY positive note I admin 3 Unix boxes. Occassionally I have come upon issues that I've wrestled with, but found the answers and a multitude of help from the folks on the tru64.org mailing list. Addtionally they have a very good website with lots of help.
But as a newbie many years ago... yep, I got the snob attitude on more than one occassion. But, I too have been guilty of it. I try tobe concious of this... as we have rolled out linux on a few desktops.
