How did they get here from there?

If you were familiar with computers in 1980, you may remember the Osborne portable with its pre-DOS C/PM operating system, tiny built-in monitor, one or two 5-1/4 floppy drives. And lacking a hard drive. This was Will's first computer. (It had two floppy drives--top of the line!)

Once he opened the BASIC programming language manual, he knew he'd found his personal niche. After devouring BASIC, he dove into Pascal, C, C++, and several database scripting languages.

In June of 1997, Will was introduced to the Internet by someone needing help with HTML. Finding the Internet was like adding honey to an elixir. Not only was it an environment where Will could use his programming skills, he could effectively make a difference with his programs.

Soon he added Perl and JavaScript, and now PHP, to his list of proficiencies. From that time on, studying these and other Internet-related programming languages and protocols became part of his life.

Soon after discovering the Internet, Will met the woman (online!) who, four months later, became his wife. Mari brought to the team a degree in photography, experience in graphic design, as well as business and accounting know-how.

And the adventure continues!
