Has anyone taken this cert? Or rather, does anyone know a thing about this cert? ie. how worthwhile it would be to get it, key areas on the test, words of advice, whatever. I'm thinking that this is the next cert I wanna get so I can say "Hey, I know more than just windows over here!".

I myself would get it if I had the funds, it couldn't hurt and would be some shure fire proof tha you know Linux.
The more people that are willing to say that you know your stuff the better off you will be when you go to find a job, its like having a bunch of friends vouching for your that your a good guy. the More postivie input, the more likely that their going to think your a good guy

what sorta test is it? I don't know nearly enough about linux but it's something I'de be interested in looking into after a couple more months of playing around with my linux box.
Well here's the low down Rapture:

Planning and Implementation (4%)
Installation (12%)
Configuration (15%)
Administration (18%)
System Maintenance (14%)
Troubleshooting (18%)
Identify, Install and Maintain System Hardware (19%)

There is from Coriolis the Exam Cram series for Linux+
I already got the Sybex Linux+ study guide, and the linux+ Certification Bible off of edonkey the other day. The latter had a practice test that I scored 85% on with out reviewing [censored]. I was weak with the lp commands, and that's about it. If that is really an indication of what the linux+ is gonna be like than it's as much of a joke as A+ is (Don't bother arguing here, yes A+ is important, but I still think it's junk).
But either way, I think I made up my mind. I want this cert by the end of the month. Let's see if I can back my mouth up now.
