http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commodore_64 During '82-'83, I think. Programmed graphics in Basic reading a bunch of Data statements and feeding those to draw calls. Ah, painting 1 pixel at the time... (not missing it, really... but at the time, it felt like magic). On 20/12/2013 5:08 PM, Ponthieux, Joseph G.

Maybe we should have a contest.   What’s the oldest computer graphics system you worked on, and the year? It doesn’t have to be 3D, it can be 2d, print, video, layout, etc. It just had to be a computer than did any kind of graphics.   Takers?   -- Joey Ponthieux __________________________________________________ Opinions stated here-in are strictly those of the author and do not represent the opinions of NASA or any other party.   From: softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com [mailto:softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com] On Behalf Of sc...@turbulenceffects.com Sent: Friday, December 20, 2013 2:24 PM To: softimage@listproc. autodesk. com Subject: Re: positivity   Ha ha yeah Ed, you're old.

There was the discussion list, which was all fun/monkeys/cheese/Porl and there was the Softimage list, which is pretty much what we are using now. There were even other lists like eddie, particle, etc.. (Yea, I’m old..) Anyway, we could have this list stay a Softimage list and create another one for all the gloom and doom.   Perfect!   Now get to work Autodesk listproc person! ;) Thanks!   Happy Holidays!

I'm tired of it. In recent times I have to think twice about posting to the list because I'm afraid my thread will get pulled into the black hole of negativity and what could have been a helpful / informative thread will be turned into a bitch-fest. The emPolygonizer thread yesterday that was heading in that direction seriously almost made me unsubscribe. If you want to complain about the demise of a software, have at it.
