Hi I am Graeme Brett Houston BSc.

I currently work for a large Scottish Organisation, as a Junior System Operator.

My hobbies excluding collecting DVDs & collecting alternative computer platforms, such as SGI's, Sun Sparc's, Acorn RiscPc, etc, and investigating all the system that go with them.

I am currently writing a small simple Operating System called Aiolios, with the intention that it will be multiplatform. The Name Aiolios is used after the Greek God of the Winds, signifying what the intended end goals are:

1. Fast, agile, sleek, Art Nouveau of the computing world


I am well versed in C and reasonably in C++, with tastes of Java & Javascript/VBScript. I would say that i am proficient in VBA under MS Excel and a taste of Assembler (only inline and were necessary)
