I have and BS and MS in computer science, with most of a minor in
systems arch from the EE department (but not all, I did it for fun,
I should have finished it).

That said, when people ask me what I am, I say I'm an engineer.  And 
proud of it, I love being an engineer, to me it just means you are 
someone who figures stuff out.
