Which Certification is right for you?

I have started to look into the Virtualization Industry and think that getting a certification may allow me to get a jump start. I have created a Ven Diagram, to illustrate the different certifications as I come across them and decide how they fall into 3 different categories. These catagories are: Operating System, Networking, and Virtualization. The certifications I’m considering are the following:

Comptia A+
Comptia Network+
Comptia Security+
Comptia Server+
Comptia Linux+
IBM Virtualization Certification
VMWare Certified Professional
Microsoft Certified IT Professional
Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator

Here is the diagram, arranging the exams into the three circles.

This is a visual representation of the exams and certification. The reality is that most exams require a solid understanding of computers and networking as a whole, with focus as the core of the exam. They are often debated and usually overpriced but I think with a focus of Virtualization there is a need for this some proof of experience.
