Been writing software for a really long time - something like 18 years. Started on the TI/99-4A, moved to the Tandy 1000, and somehow managed to skip all the lousy hardware/software jumps (286, 386, first Pentiums, Win95, etc.)
 
I now run a small software business called CubicleSoft with a few products you might be interested in. VerifyMyPC and MyUpdate Toolkit are the most popular. I'm also the author of a book called "Safe C++ Design Principles".
