Last year job hunting, the one thing pretty much every interviewer wanted to know more about was the Firefox hacking experience I had. How I got involved, what I did, how I did it, what I learned, what I plan to do, etc. etc. Education? Spent as little as 10 seconds on that college experience. I guess it just goes to show how much more valuable experience is compared to reading a book of someone else's experience. I’ll vouch for this.
