       | a bit. But it triggered my interest into finally learning Lisp
       | and Scheme and that had a big influence onto my professional
       | career which turned from the prospect being a Java programmer
       | into a professional Lisper, which I still am today.

       | In my eyes, the Palm Pilot 3 was a really amazing device.
       | Portable, long run time and with an 8 MHz 68000 processor up to
       | most tasks. A bit a pity, there was not a larger eco system
       | around it and it was basically the last of its kind. LispMe was
       | very cute, though of course not for larger tasks. Still, as
       | written above, quite life changing :)
