Computing

I've worked with computers since 1979, from great big mainframes in air-conditioned rooms to whizzy little iPhones. For the first ten years I worked on large, bespoke systems running on ICL mainframes, using COBOL and proprietary programming languages, since then I've moved on to Macs and from there to iPhones & iPads with a little unix and Windows work along the way.
