    Also, Go Hokies!
    lol, I guess you can probably make a guess on who I pull for?

    Haha, yep. I used my exceptional powers of deduction.

    I may have heard that the US office is out of the old style 200dx's and the next shipment will be the new ones. Awesome!

    You are doing better than some, lol. Also, like the quote in your sig. I went for engineering, albeit Industrial so I won't pretend I'm a nuclear engineer or anything. Which type did you major in?

    Nothing wrong with that, I work with a lot of industrial systems engineers who are smarter than me, lol. As for myself, I ended up with an aerospace engineering degree (class of 2007).

    That's a toughie. I didn't have to take any AE courses (Statics was probably the closest I got). My roommates were nuclear engineers, which was surprising given how idiotic both of them were in real world situations (Or maybe it shouldn't be surprising, lol)
