Hey, that might actually be reason to take the intro to Windows, I mean computers, class. Just think of the opportunity to get college credit for surfing the web!
I wonder what programming language they'll have you study ... Smalltalk and Scheme are Lisp dialects that are often seen in these classes, and are supposed to be easy to learn, but there isn't much real-world application for them. On the other hand, if they have you learn Python you'll probably have fun and learn how to build useful things at the same time.

If they try to teach you Assembly or Java, run.
