General Stuff

This is a really nicely formatted site for learning the Linux command line as well as shell programming. LinuxCommand.org

Some pictures from when I lived in Mexico

Some interesting history about Pistol Pete (The OSU Mascot) You will have to scroll down on the page to read about the man, very interesting.

I started keeping a blog to document the things I have learned in the course of using Linux that I thought I might like to remember some day.

Open Source Applications

Here are a few Open Source applications I have written.
For example, these are some quiz games I wrote in JavaScript and HTML. These versions may be a little out of date with the code stored on sourceforge, but you get the idea. The source is available at sourceforge

New version: Features "daily doubles" and a "final question"
Computer Security
Older versions:
Database and Program Design
OSU-Okmulgee quiz
Object Oriented Programming using Java Chapter 4
Visual Basic and Access

My first computer (PC actually, I had a TI and C64 first)

The Seequa Chameleon "portable" IBM PC Clone. This computer contained both an Intel 8088 and a Zilog Z80 so it could run either MSDOS or CPM. It had 128k RAM, Bubble Memory to keep your BIOS settings and 2 180k floppy drives. I eventually scraped together enough money ($350) to add a 10MB Hard Drive. I miss it.

DotCom
