I have reached an enlightenment recently. Pretty much all the technology around me is an instance of a gadget, that has-a microprocessor, and has-a bunch of I/O ports to connect to some breakout circuitry. In my 10 years of work since school, nothing I have touched did not fit that description. So if I could go back, I would probably major in Electrical (instead of Mechanical) Engineering to have more fundamentals about hardware and software. Not complaining though - my work has been interesting for the most part.
