You can contact Norse Code Technologies at Norse Code Technologies was originally formed in 1999 as a Software Development Company, hoping to be bought out by Bill Gates III (no luck yet). Meanwhile, Norse Code Technologies had evolved to include backing up music and sound from vinyl records and cassette tapes onto CDs. In 2002, Norse Code Technologies expanded into Web Development and it has been the focus of much of its business. In 2010, the company began developing iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad applications (apps). The interest in computers was spawned in the '70's with the introduction of electronic table tennis and hockey on a black and white TV (well, alright, not really a computer). How far we've come! It was over thirty years ago when I was exposed to a computer - a Tandy Radio Shack TRS-80 Model III - belonging to my brother as part of a computer correspondence course. It was the latest thing, featuring 4kB RAM (woo-woo!), two 5.25in. floppy disk bays (which were still empty for lack of funds) and a cassette tape player as its storage device. Our favorite game took seven minutes to load! Compare that to today where it can take that amount of time to download a 2 Megabyte file via a phone connection; way larger files using broadband. Later, it was the Atari family of computers and game machines that dominated the scene: the Atari 2600, 5200, and 7800; the Atari 400, 800, 130XE, 600XL, and 800XL (8-bit computers) and ST series (16-bit) including the STe. I taught myself programming first on the TRS-80 and then the Atari's. The PC was a different animal on which to learn programming, but that was the objective. (Just a side note: I still have the Atari 800XL, 130XL, 1040STe and 1040STf computers.) In June 2007, I moved over to the Apple brand of computers with the purchase of an iMac. Software development came back full-circle in the form of developing apps.
