My history so far ... What do you do after spending over 20 years in the Royal Navy Submarine service as a Tactical Systems specialist - the answer - surround yourself with a forever changing environment fixing sick computers.  All I need in the office to complete the environment is a periscope, oh, and the smell of hydraulic oil!

I started using personal computers in 1980 with the purchase of Sinclair ZX80 with 1kb of memory.  Before long I upgraded to the ZX81 and then came along the 16Kb expansion pack - an absolute must.  I was so amazed with the technology that I worked my way through all the new leaps in technology over a 6 year period until the introduction of the 8086 the start of modern PC's as we know them and then I lost count.  In the last 20 years we have moved from 25Mhz with 1Mb of memory to a whopping 4000Mhz (4Ghz)+ with 4000Mb (4Gb) of memory (32 bit systems) or (16 Exabytes if using a 64 bit systems) and it's still going up.  Interactive high definition gaming, digital photography, film editing and online banking were things to dream of.
