I won't take issue with that, as you are quite right in doing this.

However, something I have often thought is that as Linux is now 
mainstream,
and big companies are now recruiting Linux types, then getting over the
first hurdle of getting a CV past the HR department is going to become
more and more important.
I would imagine that unless your CV really hammers home Linux experience
then certifications are going to become more important.
Just my two pence worth, and this is of course open to debate.
