Some are born with knowledge, some derive it from study, and some acquire it only after a painful realization of their ignorance.

Some study with a natural ease, some from a desire for advantages, and some by strenuous effort.
But the achievement being made, it comes to the same thing.

In our forums, there’s been discussion about some people trying to find half-decent equation writers that do a little more than the, er, lacking Equation Writer Microsoft put out for free in their Education Pack.
Most of our solutions so far have cost upwards of $99, and I’m sure most of those programs have a [...]
Man, I’m sorry guys. I’m JUST NOW getting around to posting these two and I’ve had them since mid-March! This is cool though because I had never heard of Mechatronics Engineering before the surveys, and both of the following are majoring in it.
Today we’re hearing (finally) from Chris Renton (of Australia) and Oliver [...]
Windojitsu.com (a blog of one of the programmers) has some hints on the MS PowerToy Physics Illustrator, for all those who like to play with it for school or fun (or both ^_^). "Some mates of mine asked me about about Physics Illustrator last night, and I googled it… whoa boy! I’ve never seen such [...]
Our next topic for the TPCU series is one which will probably hit home for a lot of our readers (as this is a tech blog): Computer Science. How can a person who centers around a keyboard find a tablet in any way appealing? Easy. You can use a keyboard with a tablet and [...]
To assist with the series, we’ve invited students to voluntarily fill out a questionnaire answering the questions we like to cover in a typical TPCU session (and yes, we’re still taking questionnaires if you’re a student or past student of any major and would like to get your ideas heard. Just go here, fill [...]
I’d call this the first day of classes but I think that’d be stretching the TPCU thing too far (lol) so I’ll just call this the first post in our new degree series ^_^.
Figured I’d start with an easy one: my major. Well, granted my major is technically petroleum engineering, but given that’s [...]
Trev and I are pleased to announce we’ll be adding a new segment to our website we like to call "Tablet PC University." We’ll be looking at different majors and going through ways a tablet PC and related software (or whatever else) can help make you more productive at whatever focus you may have. [...]
If you’re in the Medical/Science field, you may want to check out the NCBI (National Center for Biotechnical Information) website. It has a number of free searchable texts which are always handy to have in conjunction with a Tablet PC."The Bookshelf is a growing collection of biomedical books that can be searched directly by typing [...]
