I wrote the program that calculated the GPA that appears on my high-school transcript.

Starting in 1984 I led the project at Locus to create the first x86 virtual machine, to run MS-DOS under Unix on the AT&T 6300 Plus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/6300_Plus).

I'm a software engineer working in cyber security, and an alumnus of the University of Birmingham, Mathematics & Computer Science (back in the 1980s). I love wild nature and especially the Celtic fringe, but live in the tamed English midlands.

I'm left of centre, interested in UK/EU/US politics and the #Green agenda. #FBPE #FBPPA #FBPPR but only if you have an interesting bio.

I like messing around with computers and networks, and technology in general. This little corner of the Fediverse lives behind my sofa, and it's not Mastodon. #GoToSocial
