Wow. That's pretty much exactly what I needed to hear...
I've been pretty set on software development for the past few years...but I guess now that college is getting closer, I'm afraid that a CS degree wouldn't involve any of the fun stuff we get to do in FIRST. So it sounds like CE is a great balance between the two, hardware and software.
The mediocre do the minimum, then exclaim how easy it is.
The exceptional never stop to gloat... they're too busy figuring out new ways to make it even better... - Mr. Lim [more]
