Yup. I have RHCE but others still like LPI, so I can't see it'll
hurt. Plus from the test papers I've seen lpi will help me brush
up some command line areas I don't bother with (e.g. xargs +
paste) - this will do me no harm!

They have used their initiative by offering 101 and 201 for £15.

You therefore have to sit the 102 or 202 at full-whack to get the
complete cert. This is a good way of getting people into lpi at
little cost to the candidate so I can't complain.
