The first time i realized a computer was more than a simple game-box was on 1987 with a second-hand 48k Spectrum. "ZX Spectrum BASIC Programming" and a big english-portuguese dictionary later and i was all set to what would become a life-long love affair with everything related to the collective disciplines usually called "software engineering".

Got my first payed job 6 years later creating a small pascal app for record-keeping during the games of the regional basketball league using good ol' flat files to store all data. Clipper/Dbase brought me the concept of a database, tables and índexes. VB3 and VC/MFC/ATL introduced me to GUI and Windows development. Powerbuilder4 tought me there are bad tools being sold as "the next big thing" and Python made me realize how programming can be really easy these days.

Grabbed myself a nice career in the IT industry before prematurely retiring on 2010 to take care of a 3rd generation familly business.

I still fire a compiler almost every day... but now is purely just for fun Smile | :)

Currently learning .NET/C# and really enjoying every minute!
