Surely you can study CS anyway, but you'll need to teach yourself a lot more... Technology is changing everyday...
Telecommunications is a lot more stable than CS e even there I studied analog switches and now I install and see Asterisk everywhere. > so I decided to get to know linux so I can know something before college > and my friend told me out was hard to listen so I figured I should learn > know then later.

My wife's laptop is a Debian one, even my 4 year girl use it every day and is having a lot of fun. You may find that the world is more friendly today than was when I started typing my own games in a storageless TK85... I really loved the MSX and you can't imagine what having a hard disk has mean to a technology student just a few years ago... Unix is just great and easy to hack... -- Leonardo Ruoso - Jornalista/Desenvolvedor Assessoria de Imprensa. Consultoria de Marketing. Desenvolvimento e Integração de Software.
