English is not my native language, sometimes it shows. 
Let me reiterate my point. It seems like theese guys are playing with the
"toy systems", the emphasis on IDE environment usually is one of the
stongest indicators in the case. I consider that linux/xxxbsd/gnu
environment it at intermediate level so far (all IMHO): ClearCase scales
better and is slightly more functional than CVS, VxWorks is a better RTOS
than RTEMS and DIAB for PPC is a slightly better compiler than gcc for PPC
(linux/bsd/gnu tools and RTEMS are catching up, but it did not happen
yet). My advise was to go up into intermediate level.

I suppose that it is sometimes hard to beleive, however, there are some
really smart guys even among managers.
