We use RHEL at the office but my usage is pretty simple and Oracle-centric.
My Linux-Fu could use some work. I just installed Debian 7 on one of my laptops for testing. The VirtualBox VM that I use to VPN in to the office works well. I'm impressed by how polished distributions have become. I'm thinking I'll work through the LPIC certifications and read a good kernel book to get a solid foundation, and then work on the RHCE... but we'll see what happens.
