> I remember going through an MIT OS project, it took me something like 50 hours of hours to complete the project. Pretty much impossible when you have a full time job (I didn't at the time).

I took an OS course loosely based on MIT one, and of course wouldn't consider myself an experienced OS developer as well, but I think the residual knowledge is sometimes really helpful when debugging bad application performance at work.
