Greetings from New England

General Discussion Introductions

I’m a long time tech user/software developer. To put things in perspective, the 1st computer I owned was a Tandy MS-DOS 8086 (maybe 8088) box with…wait for it… a green (monochrome) monitor and a whopping 10MB hard drive. I paid $500 for an early version of Microsoft’s C Compiler (yes, C, not C++) that came on a couple of 5.25" floppy disks.

Over the past 35 years I’ve developed desktop PC software for Windows, Mac, and Linux using a C, C++ and Java, along with proprietary languages such as MATLAB. I still enjoy the challenges of software development, most days :grinning:

I first started watching Leo “back in the day” on The Screensavers when it aired on TechTV…

I’m a Boston sports fan, but not a fanatic.

I’m a new England native myself! I would most certainly call myself a fanatic although I don’t really like the NFL or NBA in general. Huge huge huge huge red Sox fan and Bruins.

I live way out in the middle of the Pacific ocean now though. I miss new England! Welcome!!
