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.

I'm really hoping to get a lot of feedback and personal experiences from
programmers about college.
