Computer names staring with a 'Z' my first computer was a Sinclair ZX80 programmed it in BASIC and ASM Then wanted to run CP/M based programs on it from the CP/M user club. Had no CP/M OS so wrote my own clone in Z80 asm: https://panteltje.nl/panteltje/z80/system14/index.html In those days there was no internet, but we had 'Videotext': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Videotex I had this book too (link to pdf version): https://ia800500.us.archive.org/21/items/MicroprocessorInterfacingTechniques_3rd_ed/microprocessor%20interfacing%20techniques_text.pdf so I could interface the Z80 with other electronics I designed. All at home tinkering, later at work in those days I designed electronics and ISA cards for in the early IBM PCs. Coding in C and asm. Been working in electronics in broadcasting since 1968 long before any 'computers'. Tubes too! Did work for power stations, army, navy, space... Learned about UNIX when working at a large accelerator in the Netherlands.. So bought a book on Unix back then, One day I got a German magazine with a version of SLS Linux: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Softlanding_Linux_System Took my UNIX book and was go in an afternoon! Took only half an A4 piece of paper with some notes... Free compiler! GCC Had already read 'The C programming language': https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_C_Programming_Language Have not been back to MS windows ever since. Had to use MS at work at times.. also to write C code for it, but that is all. Some MS windows stuff ran here on the Linux windows emulator, like LT Spice back then. Had my own TV repair shop too for a few years. Been all over the globe doing electronics too at times... or just curiosity. Curiosity is what seems to be driving me. German electronics magazines were very good too! Still using code from some :-) There is more :-)
