It's very exciting, just ask > Eduardo. I've worked in sales, but I tried to avoid lying. For example when I was in college I worked for Sears. They instructed me to "sell extended warranties" I complied, but I also told the customers that I thought it was un-necessary. Sears didn't like me very much - what with telling the truth. > I'd expect an electrical engineer to be more knowledgeable than > your posts indicate. If you think one person can possibly know EVERYTHING there is to know about the subject of electronics/electrical devices. For example: - Do you know what VHDL is? - How about a state machine? - Synchronous DDR? - PCI Express? - Flip-flop? - What does GCLK mean in the context of FPGAs? - What are constraints? This is just a small sample of what I know, because this is what I work upon every day..... but I suspect a lot of it you have no clue what it's about. And that's fine. Because I don't expect one person to know everything there is to know about EE.
