That's ok. I've done nothing much really - I feel the same as you when
I'm working with some of guys in my office who've been doing this
stuff since before I was born :-).

I think there's a combination of route in to this. I had a fscked up
entry myself, but suggest that CA:AQA from my last mail is probably a
good starting up. Whatever Bill Joy (one of the good guys at Sun) says
is worth listening to, and he says this is a good book. Other than
that books on PICs and other hacking stuff are good - The
Quntissential PIC Microcontroller is a good book for discussing a
wealth of issues that are never taught even to computer scientists -
like how FETs and gates are actually implemented in silicon.
