So, you have a life and can't do both? :-)

Hi Oliver,

I wish you all the best in your new job. I'll hope you will enjoy your tie and the non-technical package :)

As others above I have always enjoyed reading your posts and I will mis your knowledge.

I hope you can find a few minutes per week to stick your nose in this forum.

All the best and good luck!

>That means I have to stop being a technical geek

I do not agree that some tech geek can actually drop all and never come back to the first love. It is only a matter of time.

I have performed a search for your replays. Based on what I have found about you, I would give you an interval of 12-18 months.

Best regards,
Horia.

Olivier,

ex UNIX admins make the best systems architects in my (somewhat biased) opinion. They usually know enough about development and programming, and plenty about operations to get the balance right, plus all those vendors and Systems Integrators out there can't pull the wool over your eyes!

I'm sure you'll be back though - I haven't been an actual Systems Admin for nearly 10 years, and I stopped actual delivery consulting on HP-UX about 4 years ago (still talk about it froma pre-sales perspective) - but the love of it keeps me coming back to the forums!

Just make sure all those systems you go on to design and architect are built on the right OS foundation ;o)

Good luck and enjoy the new career...

It was great having you here, Oliver. I wouldn't be so down about moving up in your career. Employment Evolution, right?

Best of luck!!
