Leigh,
	If you go the CIT/TAFE way they are very Microsoft biased, I'm doing the
advanced diploma of software development, we've done one unix module with
solaris and some perl, and in a very superficial manner.
You be better off doing comp sci at uni and get broader approach IMHO.

cheers petervdm

ps. sorry if you got another similar message from me hehe
