Computers are in Jon's blood, he started dabbling with them at an early age. He started with Commodore PETs and moved to the TI-99/4A and then back to the Commodore with the C64 and eventually Amiga before infection of the graybox syndrome set in. From the start he wanted to be a programmer, first banging out some goofy BASIC text adventure games and a nice Rogue-like on the PET, and eventually demos, games, and tools on the C64. Programming for Amiga and PC doesn't hold his interest, but if need be, can be done. Free-time is spent reading, painting miniatures, chatting with friends, playing games, and driving in the green environs of Washington state.

Born in South Wales on Xmas day 1974, Andy’s first encounter with a C64 was Xmas `84, when his parents bought him a C64 and C2N, along with a Boss joystick and some games. He hasn't looked back since and still tinkers with it till this day. Andy plays drums in a band in between maintaining a home network that contains far too many computers, laptops and servers to mention...

Born in Liverpool UK (I'm a scouser by heart) in 1973, moved to London in 2001, then moved to the States in 2010. Enjoy all kind of things computer related, but enjoy them as a hobby, at the moment. I'm a general happy go lucky person, but at the moment I'm on a mission trying to remember to say the 'American' expression of the UK version, or people don't understand me....doh!!
