Just joined the group; I'll introduce myself. My first name is Tim<br>and I live in central Florida near Orlando. My vocation is as a<br>business application programmer which I started in '66 by<br>wire-wrapping boards for Univac 1004/1005s. I spent the next 14 years
<br>designing/writing big-iron financial applications: demand desposit,<br>time deposit, installment loan. Since '81 I've specialized in<br>designing/writing micro-iron vertical order processing applications<br>for distribution businesses: automotive aftermarket,
<br>awards & presentations, pottery & landscaping.<br><br>My hardware is limited to Intel/AMD powered computers on which I use<br>FreeBSD and the Debian distribution of Linux.<br><br>My current project is a web enabled horizontal order processing
<br>application using Apache and Linux/FreeBSD which you can test drive,<br>if you wish, at my showroom at <a href="http://www.sababeach.net">www.sababeach.net</a>.<br><br>I am retired excepting continued support for my order processing
<br>application. I join ix user groups as an enjoyable way to keep up with<br>the state of ix software.<br><br></blockquote></div><br>
