I would not say that one is any better than the other. The amount of info-fluff in each depends on the month. Sys Admin ( http://www.sysadminmag.com) is mostly howtos and 'this is how I did X in Y environment', which I think is more interesting but on slow months you might get an article on how to set up crontabs or something. This one isn't Linux specific, so you might get an entire issue covering Solaris, etc. I enjoy it.
