During the 80's I owned an Amiga 500. I was fasinated by its powerful graphics, and found humor in the fact that at that time the IBM world was still stuck in EGA. But at the end of the 80's came cheap photo quality, 24 bit graphics and the speed of the Pentium chip. After almost ten years with the Amiga 500, I upgraded to my first IBM.
After years of using many different graphic programs I found Paint Shop Pro, (a shareware version downloaded from DOWNLOAD.COM) Paint Shop Pro doesn't take up my hard drive space and is just as powerful as Photo Shop and others that cost hundreds of dollars more.

My first exposer to a computer was way back in the fifth grade. We were one of the lucky classrooms to have a computer, a Commodore PET. I wrote my first program, and from that day on I was a silicon junky.
Now I work on a Pentium 200MMX, mostly for raytracing and digital graphic's. Several monthes ago I found a copy of QuickBasic 4.5 at a secondhand store and bought it for $3. I was pleased to find it worked under Win95.
