I got a BSEE back in 1993, and have since moved into web development, enterprise development, and database administration. Basically, I recommend moving into CS if you plan to develop professionally. Knowing how electronic things work is nice, but I hardly ever use that knowledge.

Is the web development salary comparable to what you'd be getting paid at a similar level hardware-centric ee/ce job?
