Did you work on VORTAC? Hm... Anyway, I just returned from Las Vegas and the books I brought were "When Computers Were Human" and "Expert C Programming: Deep C Secrets." Neither one got read but they both have been marked by suntan lotion and beer. :-O

TI calculator/Z80 HobbyI've taken up assembly programming as a livelihood. No, really! Anyway, to help lure young men, er I mean new engineers, to my project I use a reverse polish notation calculator (insert Polish joke here) to show how easy fun possible! Try going to Computer Science Lab they have some nice resources for you: http://www.computersciencelab.com/index.htm[^]

Coding with MusicMy answer is... it depends. My office is extremely quiet so I don't feel the need to drown anything out. I usually don't like the distraction of music in the headphones, but ambient music is nice. But when I'm testing in the lab I am fully plugged into my iPod. Nothing helps you through a 600 step test better than the Ramones Anthology!!!!
