I, a tenth-grader, got out of the subway and walked in the direction where some kind of coffee bar, like Coffee House, was then, I don’t remember. Maybe he was near the subway Arbat.
I was a tenth-grader, I had no problems with the delivery of the session, I just sat at the computer until the time when the parents crawled out "on business" and were banished from the hallway =) I am a programmer. I programmed all my free time. Somewhere there were pluses, somewhere cons.
At that time, I do not remember how, met a remarkable man Leonard. Leonard invited him to participate in the magazine "Pocket Computer". I do not remember what I caught fire at the beginning - by publishing in a magazine, or by the fact that I “have to” find PPC =) ')
Coming to the first paragraph: we discussed the first issue of the magazine. Well, they, and I went to them) Near the institution, our valiant millition twisted my red eyes from the computer (I did not use drugs then). For half an hour they stole, but let go.
But when I entered, after all, in an institution - there was a paradise. 2000 with a little year, but the table (shifted tables for 12 people) is littered with PDAs, laptops, and everyone pokes something)
I was sitting, I was silent, but still I felt my involvement in such a society!
And then the first issue - wrote about the tools for developing games for PocketPC. Now I vaguely remember, not because of drunkenness, but because now you can use DirecxtX on Win Mobile.
Recently I wrote a small 3D engine for WinMobile 6.1. If it is interesting, and if I fit in the format of the site - I would like to write.
