That's not true at all. London is the number two IT city in the world, every OS is there. I know personally many (hundreds or thousands) of Solaris, AIX, BSD and similar admins alone, and we all know that iSeries, Z, OpenVMS and every other OS is there, too. Job listings are useless, good jobs don't go on listings. Listings are mostly fake and will heavily mislead you.

I think you'll find the rarer the skill set the higher the pay. Windows admins, and Linux to an extent, are fairly common, whereas UNIX, OpenVMS, iSeries, etc are rare.

Windows is the lowest paying. This is what I mean... looking at job listings is 100% useless and misleading. It will make you think all kinds of bad things and lead you to make really bad career decisions based on misunderstandings.

Although Linux continues to pay more than those. Linux people with Solaris level skills earn more than their Solaris counterparts. Linux manages to remain on top, even with how common it is, because so many people avoid getting the skills regardless of how big the market demand is.

But remember, those sites are very misleading. Linux often pays double as much as job listings claim. If you use job listings for information, you will limit your knowledge a lot.

I know London banks will pay around $120K for first year Linux Admins based in NYC. That's what London pays to offshore that work to lower cost locations. They have to pay more than that in London or else it makes no sense to offshore it to the lower cost US.

@scottalanmiller yes definitely. scott. l'll work hard to get to Linux admin. l'll start reading your book and download centos. l make up my mind of Linux gradually process
