I started with computers early, in form of a
HP 65 programmable calculator. This was swiftly followed by a
HP 41c and then a
Commodore VIC 20. The next step was a
Commodore 64, upgraded to a
Commodore SX64 and finally several Amiga models. The
Amiga 500 came first, and after that was modded ad nauseam I changed to a
Amiga 3000. Unfortunately the mobo died a couple of years ago, so now I have some Zorro boards gathering dust:
Working at
Sun for more than a decade, I gathered a solid UNIX foundation. When I left Sun in 2001 I switched to
Mandrake as my desktop OS.
Today the main OS I work with is
Apple Mac OS X and
Linux, and
Solaris of course. And then there is the ubiqutous
Windows XP.
Since Sun got acquired by
Oracle I work there now.
