Had you been computer engineering, you'd be all over this stuff.

My degrees are in digital electronics (degree in 1992, when the 386 was king), and Microwave communications (has nothing to do with the oven). Micro was a nightmare. Shorts look like opens, opens look like shorts. Black magic. Now I work with Lasers. Electron degrees, photon work. Go figure.

If, in 1982, computers lookedthey were going to go anywhere, I would have probably stuck with it. But at the time, they were not looking overly helpful.

The saddest part is, I almost went to a job fair at AMD in 1983. They were hiring people to train into building and designing computers.

Got another exam tomorrow. I beat the class average on the last one, but that doesn't say much for the raw score in a differential equations class.

Sorry, I didn't happen upon this topic until way after you asked -- but I may be able to lend a hand with the maths if you still need it. Lemme know.
