I use Thunderbird to check my Hotmail account through a tool called Hotmail Popper. This tool may run into difficulties when the Hotmail site changes its look in a few weeks but right now it works great and I don't have to deal with opening a browser for some mail and a local client for others.

The net, and the way it 'lives', reacts, etc., is much more like that of the real world we live in. If there is some central being, entity, thingy, processor, then it is decidedly different for each person acting on the net (kind of like religion). It's just a bunch of electronic patterns but who's to say that we aren't much more than that since that's how the brain works. I don't think there is a definitive answer for this but that's what makes the conversation interesting; learning from others and expanding our own thoughts.
I'm working on an Industrial and Systems Engineer degree (which doesn't depend a lot on computers) and am currently working as a J2EE developer. It's not so much the degree that you've obtained but that the degree that you _did_ obtain shows you can take in some higher level understanding and can work to prove it. Look into what the school offers in their respective programs and focus on what is more interesting to you.
