I might get downvoted, but if you really want to understand how the system works you can pickup a textbook on Unix/Linux OS for beginners, just make sure it is not distribution specific. >90% of what you will read there will be applicable to MacOS. I am now going through this book: http://www.amazon.com/How-Linux-Works-Superuser-Should/dp/1593270356 You can find online if you want ;) This way you will learn not only about MacOS, but about the whole family of Unix like operating systems. I am using linux pc at work, but I have a mac at home.
You probably want the full package which includes having a desktop/window manager. Use a popular distro because you will need help (and a popular distro has more resources/support available). Use the terminal all the time. Read all the time. Fuck with everything

Came here to say this!
This book really hit the sweet spot for me. Covered Linux in just the right balance of concepts and details. I would read a bit, then try it on the computer. Really helped!

How Linux Works
Man, I wish I could find a programming job where I can use Linux. Every place I've applied has been Windows or Mac.
Also, for a learning suggestion: check out the book "How Linux Works" it's by far the best book I've read on Linux. It takes you from total beginner to intermediate level. Just make sure you get the 2nd edition, it added a lot more stuff.
