I wasn't in Engineering though. Friends of mine in >Engineering more-or-less NEED an MS-DOS machine because that's where the I've managed for about 4 years with my GS and I'm an Electrical Engineering major. Most of the stuff I do is lab reports, which I use AWGS, and then use the campus Laserwriters for printouts. For serious engineering work, I use the campus mainframes/workstations, like SPICE and VLSI CAD programs. Any home computer is probably not going to be able to do these very well, be it apple //,mac,ibm,etc. Only once have i had to use a program that I had to run on an ibm/mac, because the brain-dead publishers only made it for those computers, but i have a PCT for such purposes. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bitnet : J0P7771@TAMSIGMA | "Frodo Lives !!"
