me: 

I would first like to say that I will do everthing possible to make you a satisfied customer.  Should you have any questions or problems with anything you purchase from me, please email me, through eBay, at microdesigns128@comcast.net.  If your satisfied, please give a positive feedback as this is very important to me.

Micro Designs is a small 'non (or very little) profit' software company located in Northern Virginia.  I've written games and utility programs for the Commodore 128 / 128D since 1990.  I started selling my software (as well as other software and computer related products) on eBay since November of 2004.

I became interested in writing computer games, when in 1982, I saw my Dad input this 'basic code' into his old IBM PC (4-colors, 256k ram, 360k disk drive, hard drives have not been invented yet) then hit <Enter>... and 'puff' ... a 'wire' spaceship (it looked like a pencil) would land on a 'wire' lunar landscape ... how did he do that? .. and then he showed me and I got hooked.

I have owned (or still own*) many computers since 1982, which includes an Atari 800XL, (3) Commodore-64s*, (4) Commodore 128Ds*, Amiga 500, Amiga 1000, Amiga 2000HD*, a 286, 386, 486*, P1*, P2*, P3* (desktop & laptop) and (2) P4s*.  I've re-built and/or built my 486, P2, P3 and P4 from scratch. 

I enjoy tinkering, upgrading, adding boards, OS systems, etc., as much as writing utility programs and games.

I sell (2) completed games for the C128 on eBay: * Starship Battles 128 * was an idea I got from the Star Trek II movie where Kirk and Khan were fighting it out on the Enterprise and Reliant starships, cool stuff.  * Space Pirates 128 * was intended to be a pirate adventure game in the the Starship Battles Universe

I'm working on a few other games:   Orc Island 128 (fantasy adventure), Air Cav 128 (Vietnam tactical), Vietnam 128 (Vietnam strategic), Federation Space 128 (grand-scale based on Starship Battles 128 Universe).

* Season Football * is also forsale on eBay - for the PC.   My Dad, who is a terrific programmer and a total football and stat fanatic, wrote this game (with a little help from me on graphics) and continues to update and tweek it all the time.  Great 'retro football game', you should check it out on eBay!

I enjoy space and strategy computer games, movies, computers programming, sports, fantasy football, baseball and basketball leagues (I'm the commish of several of them), golf, motorcycles (bought and sold two of those on eBay), music (been a drummer for 40+ years). 

I sell great computer products at a fair price, guaranteed to work or I'll refund your money.  You can't beat that!  You can contact me, through eBay, at:  microdesigns128@comcast.net with any questions or comments. 

Thanks For Looking,

John LeDoux
