Short version:
First on DIGITAL;
Then on Macintosh for years;
Learning Linux now.
Longer version:
First on RSTS/E,
PDP-11 tricks--
And then came the VAX.
VMS was fun.
32 bits--much more room.
Terminals were slow.
Microcomputers.
Why so cool? Bitmapped displays!
Just blew me away.
Macs were beautiful:
Quickdraw, Toolbox, Finder, fonts...
Bitch to program, though.
Heard about Linux.
Took a while to see the point;
So much power--free.
Twenty-five years on,
I'm still learning every day.
Will it never end? :)
