Ah well. My name is Charles Nicholson. I'm 19 years old, and I go to Vassar College (New York, USA). I've had my Yaroze since December, and I'm busy at work on a few projects (3d etc..., and coming up with something as INSANE as Gasgar v. Gasgar for 2d. Freaky game. Love it), but have yet to break into the scene, as it were. I started programming when my dad set me down in front of our BRAND SPANKING NEW Apple ][e (at only $3000). BASIC. I picked up C in high school, taught by a good friend of mine (Crazy Bastard dropped out of high school, was on the Dec. 23 cover of Forbes mag- the greasy looking French kid holding the keyboard above his head, for all of you devoted Forbes readers... :) he's in a startup company that got attention. TANGENT) Anyway, I did way too much DOS32 programming, modeX, bit planing, etc, and i'm GLAD to get to hardware that makes a good amount of intuitive sense. Influences: ummm.... John Carmack, for being completely insane. Seth Teller (MIT), for publishing TOOOO many graphics papers. Jaco Pastorius (king of electric bass). That's about it. Take it easy all -Charles
