I hear you, brother. I currently work at a place as lead (and only) developer. There are sysadmins with me, but I had to configure everything I wanted/needed myself (FreeBSD, Apache, PHP, etc) to create a new system for the company because, well, I'm the only one who knew how do anything
besides point and click.
I'm 32, been in the field for years, I feel there are far more like you
have observed than those who know how to get down in deep and make things happen with just a keyboard to configure, to script, to code. So I guess we're a small bunch, but it's all good. Nerds rule the world!
