No, it isn't.

As always the demand is top heavy - there are a definite shortage of 
people qualified for senior Linux positions while there tend to be quite a 
lot of people able to go for junior positions.  No surprises there really.

Linux admin is much more of a markettable skill than it was even 2 years 
ago.  Until recently "pure" Linux positions were fairly rare.  Lately they 
have become much more common as companies are now relying on Linux for 
core infrastructure much more readily.

Cheers,

Rob
