It always helps to be a good programmer. It is important to like computers and to be able to think of things people would want to do with their computers.
I started on an Apple II, which I had bought at the very end of 1978 for half of my annual income. I made $4, 500 a year, and I spent half of it on the computer.
The power of the computer is starting to spread.
I really think it is amazing that people actually buy software.
