Profile: Crystal Cave Computer

Personal background
Hello World!

I'm Bill Wilson sole owner and ideasmyth of Crystal Cave Computer. I'm old for the tech world, one of those old geeks they have special online support forums for since no 20 or 30 something IT manager is going to hire someone who was doing computer work when they where 3 feet tall and dressing up a Bo Duke for Halloween!
So I started out on the good ole Commodore Vic 20, 4k of memory, banked dip switches on a homemade memorycard to add a whopping 8k and it took 30 mintues to load a 4k cracked game from audio cassette into the ram. Most of your programs you typed in yourself fron Run and Comute magazine. Then spent days looking for the period that was a comma! I was 28 at that time. Needless to say the years have flown past and during those years my experience with control codes landed me a job at an Apple Dealership, that then went and added Hyundai & Epson computer to stock. How many remember Hyundai computers? That lasted about 8 years then in 92 they closed and launched me into my own business. That was an interesting year! Just bought a house in Wilmington, NC. Used all my savings and credit to remodel, then suddenly I'm self employed. Probably the best way to make the change from farming to hunting is to lose the farm and be forced to hunt to survive. Safe & cozy never breeds change! To be Cont!
