The concept is good, but do you think someone will be willing to
shellout $100/- (or similar levels) for getting certified on general
knowledge about opensource softwares? If we include user level stuff
like what are the desktop's available, how to reboot the machine, how
to we switch from terminal to GUI, etc. then I guess there is a
massive population who will be requiring this, as well as we will be
helping in the spread of linux into the desktop areana.
Just my 2 paisa.
