Why Proteus?, well thats easy, Many years ago when I first got into computers (And I am talking about the days of the Sinclair ZX-80a, or the TIMEX as it was in the states), I was also heavily into SCI-FI films, and one stood out in my mind from all the others, I cant remember when it was made, but I first saw it ( I think) around the mid 1970`s.
The Film was called DEMON SEED, And it starred Julie Christie.
Whats this got to do with the fact that my web site is called Proteus?, well thats easy, if you have seen the film, you will know why, if you havent I will explain. In the film, Julie Christies husband ( I forget the name of the Actor who played him, but if you know then please E-MAIL me), Built a Super-Computer capable of Artificial intellegence ( The Actor Robert Vaughn played the voice of the Computer), and he got to to run his company as well as to run his home for him, well it all went wrong, and the computer became self-aware and decided to procreate, it did this by locking the builders wife in her home, and then artifially inseminating her, she then gave birth to a hybrid Computer/person.
The computer was called Proteus, and as I have have spent most of the last 15 years in front of a computer of one sort or another, my Wife thinks that the Computer and I are joined in some way.
When I first heard about the Internet, way back in the days before the WWW I joined DEMON INTERNET and the first question I was asked is "What do you want to call your Node?", well it was easy, thats why my machine is now called Proteus.
