At present the biggest problem is lack of a television. Previously its been doing the final year of a degree. I've decided to stop lurking (just reading the web site and newsgroups) and try and and contribute to the Yaroze community. Whilst I'm saving to get a TVCard (or TV) I'm willing to help people with C coding stuff / algorithms. Most of the people I work with seem to be better than me at coding, despite this I'd still rate myself as fair to good, its what happens when you work in a high-tech company. If you want a hand drop me a line, i'll reply to all although I can't guarntee that it'll be any use :-/ What I need to (apart from a TV) is to get into a team that'll keep nagging me to get stuff done. Then it'ld probably happen. Brian [1] Although I did get around to writing a controller library which supported all the controllers I could lay my hand on (including the then just released Sony dual analogue stick) . Unfortunately lost in a hard drive head crash. P.S. Sorry this posting is going to look crap in a fixed width font. P.P.S.
