nah, it's okay 
i wouldn't want to come accross as some computer know it all at 15... I know the sort.. there are some in school who bragg about "Last Night I was bored so I uninstalled and reinstalled Windows" or "I only go into Chatrooms to 'Noop' people..." when at the same time this induvidual only knows as much HTML as the tag. 
There are plenty others thoguh... irritating [Word that may get moderated removed by aka just in case] !!
well now that's off my chest, thanks for adding me to the web design programmers thing... place.
And I leave you with this>>

Yes - I liked OS2 too. I only did one big project on the platform, in C. As far as I know it's still running at a few insurance companies in Austria, Germany and Denmark.

Dancer, could you maybe expand by entry a bit with:
Forth, Basic (Visual Basic, QBasic), HTML, Java, JavaScript, VBScript.
Plus, could you add a 'Projects:' line with the following:
Projects: Writing an operating system.
and a journals: line
Journals: CUJ, MSDN Magazine, DDJ
Thanks,
:x
PS. it was aka's comment about 15 year-old know-it-alls that prompted this slight expansion.

I forgot to include FORTH. I worked on a FORTH interpreter, written in C (then C and assembler). Being Canadian (Canadians end every sentence with "Eh?" - at least that's what they say about us, eh) we called it Ehth (pronounced almost like eighth). Management didn't like that, so it was called P.D.L. for Product Definition Language. This quickly became "puddle".
