I used both OS/2 (Warp and earlier) as well as Amiga OS and the latter is a better choice to bring back. Probably easier too!

Take the money because the higher salary will help you get more $$ in your next job. The big company probably has a 401K match which is more $$. Finally, the 120 mile distance means either a relocation or a brutal commute. The relocation puts you in a place where you don't have contacts or friends. If the job craps out, you will have to look for a new one in a new location - never a good thing.
