How times have changed. In the early '80s he was called an
entrepenuer. Before the heyday of venture capital many
startups and a couple I witnessed up close were started by
guys that went off salary to their basements to work on
until they had actually made something they could sell.

That's what I'm attempting and I would seriously object to
being called a retired hobbyist.
