How were you involved with TPU?
Frequented the IRC chan, helped some in some organized DOS attacks and IRC channel takeovers. Later on started working on TPU2D and what was to become TPU3D (it never really took off)
How about a capsule summary of the programming you did in your TPU years?
Tried to make a unified interface for 2d graphics capabilities, then made plugins for VGA, VESA (most of the init routines for this I took from another member), ASCII Later started work on adding basic 3d capabilities (polygon rasterization, affine texture mapping), but that came through in between.

Python lover, J2ME, PHP, C++, i've forgotten assembly now
