i'm currently a student of electrical engineering at michigan tech and know many people working for computer corporations now. and from what i understand it fucking sucks. don't do it. you may get lucky like my friend jason and get a job blowing up speakers at bose, but chances are you won't. i plan on doing anything but sitting in a cubicle all day with the occasional board meeting about something i don't give a shit about, such as shaving 2/3 cents of a given wiring design. so needless to say i'll probably be doing a studio internship. FUCK THE MAN.
