In 1980 (using a Sharp MZ80K) he deveoped the first Pallet Loading Software on a Desktop PC. This was converted to run on the IBM PC after it was launched in 1981.
We also had early versions for the Sirius and AppleMac. The IBM AT really pallet load software desk top software take off as the computer graphic chips caught up with the software capabilities.
We produced versions for various O/S's, starting with CP/M, then DOS and Windows. A re-write from DOS to Windows was a major step forward in useability and the software stability has been maintained through to todays Windows 7.
