As a programmer and manager of embedded software products for a living, I think that operating system programming is so much fun that it will eventually be outlawed. I've previously published two articles on OSNews, So, you want to write
an operating system and Climbing
the kernel mountain, and tried to summarize my experience in designing operating system kernels as well as technical traps that can be easily avoided.

A lot of nice talk, but I think that it boils down to "it's more fun but less efficient to write new code than to modify existing one", which can often mean "it's more fun but less efficient to write new bugs than to fix existing ones".
