If you are like me (sorry for you), you have been working in the land of Microsoft since MS DOS was born. But today I had to buy an apple Mac. It arrived in a box and, i have to say, it looks good from the outside, rather than my Dell i'm using now.
why?
well I'm a hardened VB programmer who wants to develop programs on the iPhone. I've developed on Windows mobile, but it just doesn't cut the mustard - nobody wants to buy an old samsung and get it programmed for business. Everyone wants to buy an iPhone.
So here I am - faced with a new life decision at 40. I must convert my 20 years of experience in programming in Microsoft, visual studio, VB programming language to: Apple, Objective C, Cocoa iPhone development.
I think lots of programmers want to do this - so I think that if i'm going to learn to do it, I may as well help others do the same, so I'll assemble an e-book at the end for other people to use. For VB programmers who are changing their stripes.
Today is day 1: Tasks
* I've bought three books to help me get going - one on Objective C, one on Cocoa and one on iPhone programming - i'll spell them out shortly
* Get internet happening on apple laptop then i'm ready to download the apple IDE xCode and the iPhone SDK.
