From building very early computers in the 1970s, starting my first company in 1981 from my bedroom, creating one of the earliest word processors (all written in assembly language back then) and building one of the leading UK software companies in the first 1980s microcomputer boom, I've been witness to, and involved in, the full history of the microcomputer and PC industry.

My team of developers and I have, over decades, developed ultra-high performance 'creative' applications such as desk-top-publishing, photo editing and vector illustration software (a sort of mini Adobe). Latterly creating pure cloud-based document creation and graphics software.

After 40 years in the computer industry, I am no longer actively involved in the company I founded, but remain a technology enthusiast - a geek at heart.
