I have to wonder just how well versed the original poster of this article is with all these certs. For one, there is no such cert as RHCP (unless you're the Red Hot Chili Peppers), the two Red Hat certs are the RHCE (Red Hat Certified Enginneer) and RHCT (Red Hat Certified Technician).
I also have to question the recommendation of a SonicWall cert. While they are popular to a degree, all studies I've read on the subject prefer certs that can be used in a broader range of products. A SonicWall cert seems too specialized to be included in a top 10.
Likewise, I have to question having two Apple certs in the list for the same reason as above - specialization/prevalence. Apple is definitely in use in some organizations, but not to the degree of some other technologies that were left out of the list such as linux (in servers).
IMO Linux, ITIL or security certs would have been much better picks for those (or at least one of those) top spots.
