My impression.
Go for the big unix servers, big databases, big memory, big networks. You don't sound like a "script monkey" to me. IMHO going into programing is a retrograde step.
In the short term I would avoid Microsoft Windows 7 because that O/S is in dnager of breaking that company.
By logical deduction: Hewlett Packard is a good employer who will let you develop if they know you exist.

NAME
strstr, strcasestr -- locate a substring in a string
LIBRARY

SYNOPSIS
#include <string.h>
char *
strstr(const char *big, const char *little);
char *
strcasestr(const char *big, const char *little);
DESCRIPTION
The strstr() function locates the first occurrence of the nul-terminated string little in the nul-terminated string big.
The strcasestr() function is similar to strstr(), but ignores the case of both strings.
RETURN VALUES
If little is an empty string, big is returned; if little occurs nowhere in big, NULL is returned; otherwise a pointer to the first character
of the first occurrence of little is returned.
EXAMPLES
The following sets the pointer ptr to the "Bar Baz" portion of largestring:
const char *largestring = "Foo Bar Baz";
const char *smallstring = "Bar";
char *ptr;
ptr = strstr(largestring, smallstring);
SEE ALSO
