VideoGames

I love video games. I have loved them most of my life. When I was very small, I got Atari?'s Pong?. Later on, I was introduced to videogame Consoles with the Atari2600. I wrote my very first game when I was around 7 years old (it was a BreakOut? clone), and continue to write them today (have a look at TuxTyping or MyVariousFreeSoftwareProjects?). My very first paycheck of my very first job was spent on Sega?'s Genesis?, and every paycheck since has had some small part in building my VideoGameCollection?. I still play videogames, and probably will until I'm too senile to pick up a controller.

VideoGames introduced me to science and technology. Because of them I was driven to discover how they worked, and in turn, how computers work. I attribute my knowledge of computers, and even MyJob (and all MyOtherJobs?) to them.

If you want to thank me for something, and you don't want to donate to [Tux4Kids], then getting me a videogame is pretty simple and straight-forward. See GiftsForSam.
