That's why you only have your OS and (mostly) disposable data on the SSD, with non-disposable data and a snapshot of the drive backed up.
After using an SSD for the last few years and the vastly increased responsiveness over even short-stroked RAID-0 Raptors, I can never go back.
There's a necessary distinction between a technician and an engineer, and I'd argue it's not always necessary for the engineer to know every last detail of more mundane tasks.
eg. if you argue "electrical engineers nowadays can't solder for sh*t!", there's bound to be some super-acrobatic child laborer in China who can do it faster and better than you.
It's not always possible to do this, eg. for VLSI or RFIC design.
Not all schools have access to anything rivalling the latest and greatest processes (eg. most have access to the MOSIS 0.6um process, but this is ancient, or some don't have access to a process with adequately detailed modelling for RF/microwave-IC applications).
A lot of undergrads and grads in the VLSI area have graduated having NEVER fabbed a single damned thing. They just do corner and Monte Carlo analyses and call it a successful design.

To paraphrase Zoidberg, there's no part of that sentence I didn't like:P
I work in the photonics area. Would've been nice to know specs like polarization dependence, wavelength dependence, stress birefringence, mode-field diameter, coupling mechanism to fiber (vertical gratings of end-fire?), etc.

It's called Agilent now.
When did we move down south and become the new aUStralia?

First with obligatory fapbot comment. Fapbot 2.0 - now gets you off twice as fast!
But some "artists" are manufactured by the major labels. You need actual talent to make it as an indie, not be a Britney Spears.

I just got done with a similar experience (1 year co-op). Got paid $30/hr + overtime.

ABIT was the only manufacturer who finally manned up to the capacitor problem.
No, stupid people are the ones who forked over $600+ for the GTX280 and couldn't wait 1-2 weeks to see how the 4850/4870 panned out ;)
Oh God, I couldn't live without UltraMon!
Seriously though, they should nuke notepad and incorporate Metapad from Liquid Ninja.
>>> Two months is a really early time for a price cut of $200. ;)
I supposed you haven't looked at nVIDIA GT260 and GT280 prices recently?
This and the NSL (Nanastructure Lab) do pretty amazing stuff.
That's cold.
London equation, Meisner effect. I've seen grad students get asswhipped with superconductor questions at their prelims.

Sir, surely you mean Saruman!
That's interesting. The switch I'm working makes use of the Faraday effect (MO effect in transmission - Kerr is in reflection).
A lot of the optical and RF equipment I work with (Agilent 84614, 8614A/B, etc.) run on Win9x.

Me. I already have 6x 1TB Hitachis, 2x 1TB Samsungs and 7x 750GB Seagates in a CoolerMaster Stacker.
What self-respecting Windows user doesn't create a custom nLite slipstream with at least this tweak applied?
