PLEASE EXCUSE THE CROSS-POSTING. +====================================================+ | CANCER VICTIM SEEKS OFF-SITE CONSULTING CONTRACT | +====================================================+ Please contact Tom Boyer at (803) 559-0526. (Address & resume are below) A computer engineer friend who is currently on leave without pay is desperately seeking some sort of contracted software design and development to make ends meet. He has already undergone chemotherapy and abdominal surgery during the last six months and is due for more surgery in a month or so. He has a 25Mhz 386/VGA system and a home office to work in, but he can't leave the area to work in another city until his doctor's give him a clean bill of health. He would like to work on projects using Unix (SCO, 386/ix, etc), MSDOS, MS-Windows, or OS/2-PM. Any other projects would be welcome as well. Please respond directly to him at the address on the following resume or call any time. He had his own software consulting business for over 5 years and is capable of working independently. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ RESUME FOLLOWS... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ THOMAS H.
