amen to that.
my first course had nothing to do with pc's, at least here in the
philippines that is, since a major part of the requisites required a
good hand at drafting.
after i left my first course to study programming, i was pleasantly
surprised to find out a couple of years later that our batch summa had
moved to programming as well.
around the same time, i had met several of my former batch mates in
makati. they were looking for programming jobs.
i have another batch mate in my current company. though he was employed
a couple of years ago, he's learning visual basic at the moment.
