    Probably not, but then again, these jobs would only make building digital
synths less fun. ;^)

I already work in the electronics industry.  As it is, it is already hard to
work all day and then go home and ask "Do I want to do even _more_ electronics
work, or would I rather do something else?"  It is a danger to have your primary
hobby and your career be the same thing.  It comes in handy as well.  It was
through my hobby I learned programming (wait a minute, maybe that wasn't such a
good thing.....).
