My 2 cents worth...8-) 

Sounds like a lot of assumptions are going on here in this thread. Geoffrey
appears to be assuing that the Sys Admin only does Unix system admin. and with
little experience. William appears to be talking about an experienced Sys
Admin with additional skills not stated, but are necessary to be an
_effective_ Sys Admin (like people skills, network admin, network engineering,
etc.) I should know... Like William, I have those extra skills and experience
which I use daily to do my job of servicing Medical Imaging equipment. (Try
troubleshooting a sick MRI without People skills, Sys Admin, Net admin, 
Net engineering skills, etc. 8-) )
