Finally I dared to upload one of my misty pictures.... Some historical info: • Learned theoretical (just on paper) assembler for the Intel 8008 at school, 1975. • Learned and practiced the Basic language on a PDP11 at the same school. • Internship assignment, build an IEC/IEEE minibus interface at the UT-Twente Opto Electronic Department with the HEF4738 together with a fellow student. • Six months internship assignment at Uher Assmann GmbH at Bad Homburg Germany, repairing voice recorders. • Got employed at HSA Radar systems at Hengelo in 1980 as technical draftsman. • New job in 1989 to an educational foundation for creating electronic curriculum examples. • New job in 1994, same foundation, as an automation expert. • New job in 2014 at an Energy Brooker as an Excel Application developer. • New job in 2015 at Veluwse Machinery Industry (VMI) as an Excel Application developer. This was the best employer I ever had. Still love this factory and miss my old colleagues. The next links shows what VMI creates, 90% change the tires under your car are built with one of these machines. VMI develops and builds these machines and a lot of more beautiful machinery. o MAXX o MILEXX o Indivion • Retired in 2023. Edited 2024-10-01 23:05 by Marcel27 |

I had the honor of meeting with Geoff this month, when the ship he was on, docked at Dunedin for an afternoon. I share this photo of us both, with Geoff's permission. It was lovely to finally meet the man himself in person, after knowing each other via email and phone for ten years. ![]() ![]() Smoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops! |

Meeting Geoff scared me a little. ![]() I mean....this is the guy that WROTE the original MMBASIC interpreter that I now use in so much of my stuff... (as do we all) I was able to ask him some really awesome questions about the development and his history of various programming languages, but initially.... We got along GREAT, but I was frightened of him at first - apologies to Geoff! ![]() I guess it was a little bit of hero-worship to some extent. ![]() Smoke makes things work.

That's me ![]() Dario ... and here, over the multi-channel AWG generator, we have a gadget that many of you will recognize ... ![]() It is always with us because it was modified to also output some fancy strings (I2C and SPI) to showcase oscilloscope's protocol decode on the go ![]() Regards Edited 2025-03-22 04:14 by dMajo ALLdataEE.com EDU Promos |

Hey There! thanks for accepting me on this wonderful forum i only recently discovered. I'm from 1959, almost in pension and love electronics stuff since i was about 8-10 years old. My godfather was a ham operator and he supported me to learn soldering and creating radios and amplifiers with tubes. In my first semester at university i became acquainted with Basic which made me switch my studies to computer science. So in the end i became an IT professional doing project and service management. Just three months to go until i am a pensioner with a bit more spare time (and less time to live - statistically). I have purchased a Raspberry Pi Pico during Corona but did not start to experiment with it as i had enough to play around with my Arduino and ESP32 components. As i am still playing around with my old Sharp pocket computers, i was looking for a Basic interpreter, capable of interpreting Sharp Basic. So i discovered Geoff's MMBasic, the Picomite and subsequently this forum. The photo is about 5 years old. nowadays i have more grey hair, more crinkles and more weight. ![]() My plans are of course huge - i'd like to build a pocket computer on my own - however, before i can do that, i need to learn far more about the PicoMite and hardware. If i will achieve that objective - we will see. So i'm hoping of a vivid exchange and your help. If i can help, i will do of course - just let me know. Kind regards, Christian (aka Xian) |
