Here we go!

I'm really excited to start blogging about my experiences of microcomputing, starting way back in 1977. Sure, there are people who can go back even further than that but I'm not blogging about computing in general, but about microcomputing. I can't say that I was a fly on the wall at any of the companies where computers were invented, but I think my own story is interesting enough.

The first microprocessor (the Intel 4004) was invented in 1971 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4004 and the first commercial microcomputer (the Altair) was first produced in 1975 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altair_8800 I managed to come pretty close to the beginning. ;-)

Hang on, I've got a lot to say!
