Depends on what you want to do with it. If you want to be a sysadmin or something,
then it might well be worthwhile - but for a non-systems programmer (for example),
it's probably a waste of time. Where I work (and we are rapidly becoming a Linux-only
shop), I don't think our recruiters would even know what the qualification *was*...and
I certainly wouldn't consider it important.
However, other environments will certainly feel very differently about it.
