Count one of the "other"s as Govt.
I didn't see govt before clicking the vote button, only now after voting do I see govt. Sorry!

I am curious about other engineers that use Macs and frequent MacResearch. I have to use PCs at my work(my company's internal software is PC based), but I use a Mac for university work and individual exploration.

Ph. D. student (materials science)
Hi Chinmoy,
I also am an engineer (studied mechanical engineering) and currently preparing my Ph. D. thesis at an institutej for materials science at a big German Research Centre.
My field of work is analyzing the ceramic injection molding process for ultra precision parts and finding out how process parameters influence dimensions, tolerances and surface quality of the ceramic parts as molded and sintered.

B.S. student (electrical engineering)
Hi Martin,
Cool. Your work sounds pretty interesting. I am an electrical/computer engineering undergraduate student at the University of Texas at Austin, United States.
I will graduate this year and enter graduate school(don't know where yet) where I wish to study and research Telecommunications and System Software.

Fiber connectors...
Hi Chinmoy,
so if you are familiar with Telecommunications technologies, you will know quite well the parts I'm analyzing: single-mode ferrules for optical fibre connectors.
We don't do any assembling of connectors or tests of connection quality, but the single-mode ferrule is our demonstrator part. It was chosen as a demonstrator for this project, as the zirconia ferrule is THE classical ultra-precision ceramic part and has a quite simple and symmetrical geometry but extremely challenging tolerances.
:-)
If this should be interesting for you or your colleagues, don't hesitate to contact me per private message in this forum or have a look at publications of authors beck and hausselt (or haußelt).

Engineering...Mac
Hi...since you're interested in engineering, I have a question for you. I'm doing some research for my nephew who is a CAD designer and recently became a paraplegic...without the use of his fingers. He is interested in the new multi-touch interface advances by Apple and Microsoft. Do you know what's available hardware and software wise that would be of help to building/construction engineers using the new multi-touch interfaces?

Same here my degree is computer science at SBU and also enjoy your work in Telecomm. I liked playing on x.25/Telenet and other similar networks back in the 90's.

There are a lot of sites out there showing book video. BookVideoTV, BookTelevision and of course CSPAN, but I like how BN.com and Reader's Entertainment TV have specific genre channels and original shows. There's just more to see and I can be specific in what genre I'm interested in. Anyone else watch online tv?
