Yeah, exactly. With how fast technology is going, and the fact that people go to 4 years of college to learn EE, I was highly doubting that I, a guy that hasn't even entered college yet, would be able to pull half of it off. Most likely I'll have to drop out to get the amount of time and money I need.

Definitely will document it and share my experiences if I do choose to do it.




As other people have said, it really depends on what your goal is.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm not so much into really building a product than learning about electronics. I tend to want to reinvent the wheel just to know how stuff works.

But for the project I had in mind, it would be more to learn the software part than the hardware. For the hardware, I'll probably start looking at the Arduino stuff. Looks very expandable and fun :)
