Let's face it, the most important, truly alternative, hobby operating systems that are somewhat usable today are three: MenuetOS, SkyOS and AtheOS. All three are hobby, open source OSes, written from people who enjoy coding low level programming. Read more about the differences between these OSes and which one you might want to try out.

With almost all OOP projects, the biggest problem is tight coupling due to poorly designed hierarchies and inheritance itself. This is one of the major reasons that big Java and C++ projects have so many problems.
The larger OOP projects need very smart architects/coders to make sure the system doesn't end up tightly coupled. If it ends up that way, it is almost impossible to work with the code base. It becomes highly viscous.
