Tech history

My earliest memories of "technology" are using our Atari and jealously playing my cousins Commodore. After that, my teen years were spent being a long haired "new hippie" who was anti- technology. Aftwer joining the military as a combat photograhper, I HAD to learn photoshop to fix my photos. I was a horrible photographer. Now I have a degree in digital graphics . The entire Adobe suite is my friend.

Dave-
I love some Adobe myself.
I hope the fact that you were anti-technology shows up in your tech autobiography. Was there a turning point or event that happened to make you take up tech again - to make you enroll in a class like this one?
I am looking forward to the story you have to tell.

It's a LONG story, fuel up on the java ;)

We have the Atari thing in common. I did like and I wanted technology though.

You were a horrible photographer? I bet you're a pro now!

I have only heard of a Commodore, so that's cool.

I have a lot of friends that are photographers and some would like to be in combat, but I'm sure it's insane.

Maybe you could pick a specific experience from that time (a good one hopefully) and describe it for your bio? Share some photos possibly from then?

Your photography is what sticks out for me in your tech history.

I never know that you were a "long haired hippy". He he!
