Grew up with macs, my dad brought home an old Lisa from work that was "my" first computer. Didn't really get started into anything other than games until a friend introduced me to the BBS scene and lent me my first 1200 baud modem. I had my own BBS running renegade within the year and a sparkling new 14.4 modem. First programmed with BASIC on the apple ][, studied Pascal, C++ in college. Picked-up perl and python at work. Pretty much any coding I do now is in python.
