Becasue any way Linux is now very much userfriendly.

Jobs for *nix Systems Administrators generally don't go to people that are
"users" of a system--they generally go to people who administer the system
- the behind the scenes people who:

#1.  Put some type of security model in place on a *nix box, or comply with
an existing organizational security model

#2.  Handle user complaints about the box (slow to connect, programs slow
to load, etc)

#3.  Add new users, and configuring the box to do whatever needs to be done

#4.  Make decisions about what type of access will and will not be allowed.

etc...

I was a System Administrator of 5 boxes for a group called Web Spinners at
the University of West Florida for about 2 years.  I'm now the Senior
System Administration Consultant to the same group.
