Electronics? Isn't that, essentially, working with computers? Then
technical books? Still not falling far from the tree here, Alaric :)

For a while I thought of being a teacher, probably of Latin. I still like
the idea but not enough to make a career of it. Ditto writing/journalism,
but again I'm not sure about doing it for a career -- mainly because, in
that case, I've done it a little and I know how much editors can suck.

Probably I'd go with some kind of scientist. I dunno which branch --
astronomy, genetics, something else. Something along those lines though.
(But then, of course, being able to apply computers/programmin to problems
in these fields would be part of what would make it fun for me...)
