Personal history

• Born in Chiba, Japan. Chiba is near Tokyo. My parents named me KENSHI. KEN (健) means 'health'. SHI (志) means 'ambition'.
• My first contact with computer was when I was at 7 age. I saw a game computer at a toy-shop. Some monthes later, I met a kind of personal computer at my friend's room.
• When I became 8 age, my father gave me 'PASOPIA-7' (made by Toshiba. It had 8-bit Z-80 CPU, 256KB memories, 8-channel PSG, and analog tape reader/recorder). I played and played it everyday like a monkey. I had learned BASIC language and a little of Z-80 assemble language.
• When I became 13 age, my father gave me a gift again. That was 'X68000' (made by Sharp. It had 16-bit MC68000 10MHz, 1MB memories, and dual 2HD-FD). I had learned C language, GUI operation, computer graphics, and so on. I made personal CG movies using DoGA system.
• I was matriculated in Chiba University, then graduated from Tutiya Lab, Department of Cognitive and Information Science, Faculty of Letters. My major was handling the electric texts with SGML (Standard Generalized Markup Language). I had learned Internet literacy and system/network administration techniques of SunOS, Solaris, NextStep, Linux, MS-DOS, Windows 3.1/95, MacOS, and PC-9801 at the lab.
• I bought first IBM-compatible PC (It had Pentium, 90MHz, 16MB memories) during I was undergraduate. I had learned Windows 95 and Visual Basic. I installed and had used Slackware Linux for a long time also.
• After graduation, I had worked at Three-A Systems as a programmer was developing document processing applications. I had worked as an network administrator also.
• One day, I saw Yoichi Yanagihara's article about Debian of "UNIX USER" magazine. I installed Debian 'rex' and became a fan of Debian immediately.
• 3 years later since I entered Three-A Systems, I decided to change a job by my personal reason. My next (and current) workplace is Top Studio Corporation, a company was founded by spin-out members from Three-A Systems.
• In 1999, I officially attended Debian JP Project and Debian Project.
