I started writing software as a kid in BASIC on my Commodore 64. I switched to an IBM AT machine as a teen and continued writing in BASIC for DOS and later Visual Basic for Windows. I've then switched to Pascal and later on to C/C++. I had then my first contacts with Linux, that later became my primary working platform, and transitioned to Java as main development language. Nowadays I can also use interpreted languages like Perl and Python and also develop for the Android mobile platform.
