Understanding programming could in a way help you understand the totally different system of electronics (flow of current), but only as a framework for understanding and learning more.
Making the RIGHT computer hardware would be easier if you are the one going to program it. Making outstanding devices has much more to do with the hardware then the programming of it. For example processors (CPUs) are most all the same; only after testing are they separated into speed classes. Before the CPU is tested Intel can't really know if the chip in question is a 3 GHz or only a 2,4 GHz. If you want to produce insanely powerful devices, you need not only to be a skilled programmer, but you need to be extremely skilled at actually MAKING your own components. That's going to cost A LOT!
point taken....it's good u join the discussion

how abuuut u set up a electronics a la computer
