Aww thanks! There may be argument about the BBS software being "definitive", but it was certainly used to run some of the most popular Acorn BBSes - there were installs with 16 dial-in modems in Hong Kong, for example. It has also been decades since I wrote a terminal emulator... simpler times! As with most things the empeg was a team effort as were all the iPhones I worked on at Apple (the first one through to the 4S) and the Nest... lots of amazing engineers doing incredible work, and I consider myself very lucky to have been able to work with them. Ditto for Electric Imp, which was a fresh look at the problem of exchanging data between the cloud and the real world. I grew up in rural Somerset in the UK and never imagined I'd get to work at Apple and be wrangling power budgets with Wendell Sander. Almost everything in life revolves around being at the right place at the right time and being willing to take risks.
