Without Aldus PageMaker (and later, Quark XPress) I wouldn’t have a career.
Without Macromind Director, I wouldn’t have a career.
Without Quicktime, I wouldn’t have a career.
Without Netscape, AOL Server (look it up, kids), Oracle, and SPARCs, I wouldn’t have a career.
I’ve done a lot of cool shit with a lot of cool folk over the years, and it’s all due to key foundational enabling technologies.
