AVR-Chat

Hi David,
Welcome.
Sorry I can't help you directly (I don't use the Time84/85)
I am writing as your have the same name as a former colleague and I am 
curious as to how small the world can be ;-)

Have you ever done software development in Oz?

Specifically, working for a small company with a digit and a letter in the 
name? ;-)

In Toongabbie/Girraween NSW  - working from 'wood panelled area' erected 
inside a factory unit with desks arranged  in two rows like at school.
Working on  a project that was already late even before the team was hired!

Ahhh those where the days (NOT!)  .... Around the late 80's/early 90's?

Cheers,
Ivan Vernot
