many slot machines I've seen are based on windows machines as well, so it would be specific to the manufacturer I guess
It's a QA position and part of the job is testing the software, not programming.

There probably isn't many people where I am that actually know linux/unix well and all they want is some simple knowledge of how to use it and will provide training to a suitable person.

They must be interested to some point otherwise they wouldn't have contacted me about the position.

All i'm trying to do is give myself the best chance of getting the job and to learn more about it would be a great asset.
