We have pretty similar pasts !

I started out programming IBM mainframes in assembler in 1969 and moved on to UNIVAC and Fortran IV & eventually 77. Then IBM Series I and PDP-11. My first personal computer was an LSI-11. Then came the Dec VAX. By then I was moving into program management and brought some of the first large SMP UNIX machines into the company I worked for at the time. Used Macs up until the Mac II but been on Windows and UNIX & LINUX pretty much ever since (although I have got a few big IBM RS frames and still some VAXen in my sphere at the moment).

Just got tired of playing the Windows game where you spend more time keeping it working than you do working with it and moved back to Mac last year.
