Agreed

If you think you're going to lose your job because you have a very narrow skillset then retrain. It's no different from any other profession.

Hardware has commodised. Software is commodising.

In five to ten years time businesses will be more used to paying for IT services and support for free/OS software, and less willing to pay through the nose for IT products that try to own you.

And frankly who can blame them.
