What I would do is try to get an internship at Apple Computer and work on
OsX audio, its closer to working on linux than doing windows apps. Sun
Microsystems uses a lot of interns as well, I actually had an oppurtunity
to work on the java audio team as an intern, but went into web development
at geocities instead. Apple and Sun have had layoffs themselves, but they
still use a ton of post graduate interns and its a good way to get your
career started (yeah, I DO wish I had interned at Sun, as my old stock
options are worthless now anyway).
