GigAg04, congratulations. I did the exact same thing nearly 15 years ago. I worked for an LE agency in the Austin area for a few years as I was finishing up my EE degree. After graduation, I ran into a friend who worked for a large computer company and he offered to interview me. After the interview and much soul searching, I decided to leave for a tech job with better pay, better hours and more safety. That said, I enjoyed what I did very much. I still stay in touch with friends from that time in my life. I wish you and your family the best in your new endeavors.
Also, as TAM said above, it must be an EE / LEO thing....
