Dynabyte was a well-known family-owned chain of computer shops, with
stores in more than 50 dutch cities. I have worked there since I can remember,
but actively, mostly part time during my studies - since I was 17. I helped
customers buy and install hardware (Soundblaster cards, graphics cards, etc.)
in their 386'es and 486's. IRQ, DMA, Vesa local bus, A long time ago...
As the stores were owned by my family, you can imagine I grew up using
every imaginable (pc) system, starting with Commodore 64's, Amigas and
Atari ST's, and every 286 / 386 / 486 there was, and started programming in
BASIC, Amos, Stos, Visual Basic etc. I worked in almost every of our Dynabyte
computer stores in almost every dutch city as a "roaming" sales representative;
mostly in Enschede, Assen, Groningen and Zwolle.
