If I had a laptop, it'd be running Linux... But I suppose everyone
here could have already guessed that... :)

To be quite honest, I'm a little embarassed that CIS has beautiful
labs and "Technology Enhanced" classrooms.  I would /really/ like to
have a class where I can play net-games through the whole session...
On the other hand, CS doesn't have a 24hr lab (like Engr), and I have
NEVER had a class in front of a computer.  In CS, we still think 
overheads and whiteboards are a neat idea!

Hell, even a Journalism friend of mine often writes E-mail to me 
from her classes.

I would be /more/ content if CS majors used computers more.  I'm a 
real hands-on person.  And some of those examples in class would have
made a lot more sense on a live computer in the front of the room.

But I can hold the jealousy back with a simple thought:  I'm not
majoring in PowerPoint. :)
