A quote from the article &quot;Case said he was surprised by how well the system
worked, but Linux became an issue when Combe's Web applications needed a
database, and the only option available to the company was one from Oracle
Corp.&quot;

I wonder who ran their IT dept., MySQL and PostGreSQL are two that comes to
mind. :)

a coincidence maybe, a recent google job posting for sys admin asked whether
you can write a large-gigantic script to do all what you did at your prior
position.

    Jonathan&gt; I just read briefly an article in eWeek about that. How
    Jonathan&gt; about systems admin positions being replaced by
    Jonathan&gt; automated scripts that any junior S.A. can learn how to
    Jonathan&gt; use?

Yeah, that works fine . . . until something underneath breaks
(c.f. the joke about the engineer and the $50k chalk mark; $1 for the
mark, $49,999 for knowing where to put it).
