So you want to know a little about me?   well here's a brief history of my programming exploits.

1982	Got my first computer (just!),  a nice shiny ZX81 with a 16Kb RAM cartridge. I used this to learn to write BASIC programs.
1984	My Dad bought a BBC Micro which was a major step up,  I could now write BASIC programs which used colour and sound!  After many attempts at writing something half decent in BASIC I took the plunge and learnt assembly language.  I started the beginnings of a sideways scrolling shoot-em-up which was never finished because I bought another computer.
1986	Another step up, this time to an Atari ST
