Although I never made it my job, I did have 2 years formal training in computer science. From the moment I started using OO language (java and C++), I never could get the point of it. As far as I understood (and understand to this day), it never felt any different from using well defined functions, sub-functions and libraries for any task that became even slightly complex. Discussing it with people around, I've never met anyone who could define it as something else than that, when we got down to it.
So yeah, there might be some people who can really take advantage of it for what it really is, but it seems those must be a tiny minority within everyone using OOP.
