I am wondering...is there any survey data or even just a few anecdotal data to support this? Anyone know what the salary range is for *BSD or Linux sysadmins and programmers? I am also wondering what the prospects are for small- to medium-sized Filipino companies or companies based in the provinces being able to afford/attract such people. I assume majority of the good ones want to work only for (or ask for salaries that can only be afforded by) the multinationals or the small handful of big, prestigious Philippine companies?
