Virtual box and its siblings can give a tough time to experienced people too. It has bugs in the vital networking part itself. A better option is to form a small group and pool hardware together and do actual networking. Group learning is very motivating and works wonders. If a faculty can be roped in, then even better.
Pooling hardware is a good idea. We can do Form area wise local LUG is a good idea I have been toying with the same in the Bandra-Andheri area and looking for space. The main drawback I perceive is lugging the heavy towers to the location.
BTW, I hope Red Hat is reading this thread and takes proper action to improve the quality of their education. The way people are narrating their experiences, it is in a very sorry state.
I hope so too. As mentioned before, I have personally not gone through the program but from the candidates that I have interviewed, I have deduced the insti's are more interested in their incoming (fees) than their outgoing (knowledge and experience).
