I reflect on university, and one of the most interesting projects I did was an 'essay on the history of <operating system of your choice>' as part of an OS course. I chose OS X (Snow Leopard) and digging into the history gave me fantastic insights into software development, Unix, and software commercialisation. Echo your Mr Kay's sentiments entirely.
