I am late to the party. I bought a Dell PowerEdge r720 on eBay and learned to install virtual machines on it and am currently learning to use Puppet for configuration as code. Having HW to play around with helps a lot, and enterprise computing is very different that consumer electronics, so it introduces you to a lot of things you probably have never had to deal with (SAS and disk protocols, RAID adapters, networking concepts).
