I am a retired electronic engineer, and started working with the original Intel 8008 in the 1970's!! My interests these days are in embedded systems using the Microchip 8 bit RISC devices, and more recently in automating equipment in my home machine shop. To this end I have purchased a "Pi" with the intention of writing software to control stepper motor interfaces to both a mini-lathe and a mini mill. Never used Linux before although I used MS-DOS extensively before MS Windows in its various guises became the OS to use.
