I guess it really depends on your target employer. Linux is used for a lot of web/mail/ftp servers, but for some reason many businesses are afraid to latch on. AIX and IRIX are used a lot in the CAD design world, as is Solaris to a lesser degree. Solaris is the most used in my industry (telecom), though we also have a few HP machines. But I don't think it matters too much what you learn on, so long as you learn the logic and command line syntax. Don't fall into the Linuxconf trap. Don't get me wrong, GUI's are useful, but an admin must always know how to fix whatever is wrong command line as well. And yes, I have also learned a lot from Neo, PxT and this board and am very appreciaive.
