You seem keen on students. I doubt anything I wrote as a student

You're missing the point of the importance of students and
what happens in the open source world.
I read this exchange (which I heavily snipped) on universities and asked
some people who are doing the OpenSolaris university work. I blogged it:

We are making some nice progress at universities, especially in China. I
hadn't realized that in just a year and a half or so we now have a
presence in over 80 universities.
OpenSolaris had a few key goals for Sun, and getting back into
universities and re-engaging with engineering students was at the very
top of almost everyone's list at the company. It's not the only aspect
of OpenSolaris, surely, but it does represent a significant opportunity
for us to help grow the community and help re-establish the entire
market from a strategic and long term perspective.
