05MESSAGE

From now on,
software is what matters.

I worked in the technical support division of a major electronics manufacturer, supporting PCs, word processors, fax machines, multifunction printers, scanners, office computers and more. Seeing the launch of Windows 95 and desktop publishing on the Mac, I became convinced that software would be what mattered from then on.

At a time when software was still hard to get into, I came across 4D (version 3.1 back then). With its graphical development screen and intuitive commands, you could tell at a glance what it was doing. I later left the company and, making full use of 4D, have developed systems for businesses across many industries and fields.
