It will always be a toy of geeks. Not making a judgement on thats the way it should be, just stating the reality.

If you want to really learn to earn money.......... Vmware/SAN/Security/AD will get you the most opportunities in I.T. shops.
It's a safe bet to assume the money/opportunities are in Windows (not that you're assuming... you obviously have the experience)... of course that's what people are familiar with and it's what needs to be fixed.

I certainly wouldn't say Linux is dying and (depending on what you meant, I guess) has no future in business. It's not going to take over the application layer any time soon, but it's the backbone of what you see and gets shit done on the back end. I don't know what that translates out to in salaries and what not, but it's definitely not just a toy for geeks.
