One clarification JTD, if you read my post correctly, I have mentioned
that if the employer has set down a set of requirements then the
candidate should have NO EXCUSES for not being able to meet them ( like
not having a computer, not running Linux, not having OO.o or
whatever.. ). But if the requirement does NOT specify ODT or whatever,
the employer should NOT hold it against him.


Agreed. No employer would ever accept a potential recruit if he said ``i
know your requirement said php but i don't know php as i do have a computer
and most/all cyber cafe's don't have php or do not let me download and
install php. Thereforeplease hire me."

who would ever hire such a person ?
