Ndoki Actually I'd prefer electrical engineer, or anything related to electronics since I have been designing and building robots and electronics most of my life. That sounds like a lot of fun, and with how fast the tech advances you'll constantly be learning new things, so it's not like you'll be stuck in a rut or anything like that.

Heh, actually it seems I can put things together better than they originally were... considering I took apart my PSP and put it all back together, with some parts left over, and it still works fine... I've also fixed some of my older stuff with some pretty strange things... like scotch tape for my MP3 player, cardboard for my disman, a pen for my graphing calculator....

I think my favorite fix was the PS2. I unplugged it, fiddled with the cords, blew out some dust, plugged it back in and it worked again.

My PS2 was given to me because it didn't work... I had somewhat the same issue, except the lens was CAKED with dust, no amount of blowing helped, I had to scrub the stuff off. Now the person who gave it to me is miffed because the broken one they gave to me works better than their new one. lol

I tap/slap the computers at work all the time when they refuse to read a check. About half the time it actually works too if I do it at just the right time. 3nodding

Ha ha ha.. yeah.. that reminds me of a trick I learned for my old computer...
*Computer stops whatever it was doing.* Me>Come on! Work! *Nothing.* Work or I'll replace you! *Computer starts whirring like mad and working at double speed.*
