KayPro II, 1982. I got so fascinated by it that I ended up teaching myself assembler and becoming a columnist for the KayPro user's magazine on the machine's inner workings ... the first step in a career built on writing on topics about which I am completely unqualified. First site: www.evident.com, 1994.

BTW, I blogged this morning about whether you can trust commercial voice, with a reference to GM and a link to this blog.
