Well, other spam tries to get your money (by you buying stuff, etc.). These people are trying to give you money (in the form of a job). I wouldn't lump the two together ...
At least it's being targeted to people reasonably might meet their needs.
Also, I see a lot of talk from members of SATLUG about how they want to see more widespread adoption of Linux -- here is someone with enough muscle to truly challenge M$ and is using (advocating?) Linux. Isn't THAT a good thing?
