Who are you? Where are you from? what's your programming background?
I am:
A 16-year old homeschooled kid in Oregon, USA(pacific NW) who's been at computers for as long as I can remember. Started programming at age 10 or even before, I can't remember exactly when. Started out with QBasic

then went on to Pascal, and now, finally, C++.
I'm currently trying to create(with my sister's help) a game featuring certain choice Lego characters. This'll be a hobby project, not a commercial game, in order to avoid licensing fees

and some C++
Location: Chemnitz, Germany
I've taken my first steps in computer programming with good old QBasic at the age of 9 or 10 I think. Later on I've discovered Borland Delphi at school and currently I'm learning to use Java at the university. Irrlicht now pushs me to have a deeper look at C++

First program in HS on a TI-83, a LORD clone. Graduated University of Southern California with a Bach of Sci in Computer Science one year ago. I have written tutorials on basic game engine programming (
http://www.skyesurfer.net/keless/vgp/ ) and have made a game called FuzzPop (
http://www.skyesurfer.net/keless/FuzzPop/ ), as well as the IrrLicht Tetris game I am currently working on.
I have also made a cell phone game engine for BREW called MQEngine, and am currently contracted to make Ninja Gaiden (original title, not a clone) for BREW enabled cell phones.
Though college taught me syntax, I taught myself everything else. There is no substitute for motivated personal research.

Hi,
I'm 28 years old, maybe very old to some.
I've started out on a shitty HP laptop when I was 10. The laptop weighted over 20 kilo's, so you can imagine...
Then I bought a Commodore AMIGA when it hit the street. I coded for over 10 years on that machine(!!!), mainly in amos, some sort of prehistorical OO-like game language. At that time, pc's had 4 colors (if you could afford the extension card, that is) while the amiga already had 4096 colors built-in.
Now I can code C/C++, Java (also on palmpilot), VB, Cobol, TPascal, Assembler IBM360, ...
