Being a Nokia subcontractor in several positions from day one till I left CCC. Hard school, wouldn't change a day.
Electrical Engineering, Information Technology 1989
First computer I used was Apple II. First programs I wrote in IBM VM/SP CMS and then in Sun unix machines (SunOS/Solaris). Learned programming with Apple Macintosh, still great UI style! Wrote about 50 MSDOS applications, mostly using graphical UI library designed and developed by myself. Setup x2ftp, may she rest in peace. Wrote magazine article about GEOS programming, after realizing my Puzzle and Reversi games were actually on Nokia Communicator 9000 ROM. Most fun had with Texas Instrument Avigo 10 PDA development, supported only by unofficial developer community. Tried some EPOC3/EPOC5, Palm, (mobile) java and S60 C++ development without too much fun. Took a sidetrip into data mining with perl, Lotus Notes and excel. Happy with PyS60 (python for Symbian OS), experimenting with iPhone and Qt. Checking Android. Can't wait to see what comes next!
