Certifications - Thoughts?

Hi List,

First of all: I'm totally and sadly a Newbie on Linux.

Second a couple of questions: I've been reading allot about Linux and I'm
prepared to install it on my machine at home. (I have a couple of friends
that are Linux enthusiast). Which distribution is the one that you, as a
list, use? Then again, which distribution is best suited for a Web and
Client/Server programmer? I know about Chilisoft as an ASP Server, but I
need more guidance.

I'm totally new to the environment. Although I had my share of C/C++
programming at collage, I haven't use it in a while.

Third, I'm currently working at Wells Fargo, and they asked me the
Brainbench certification for SQL and ASP before I started to work here. Hope
that answers the question.

gotten a job because of a brainbench cert?
