Greetings loyal Kibbles & Bytes readers! My name is Michael Scott Duplessis and I am the newest member of the marketing team at Small Dog. I have worked here since September of 2010, formerly in the Phone and Web department. If any of you have called our sales line (1-800-511-MACS) in the last year and a half there is a good chance that we have spoken.

My history with Apple computers goes back to the 3rd grade when I started using an Apple IIe computer in the classroom. My favorite program was Logo. I loved entering simple commands to create complex patterns with the turtle. Little did I know that, according to Logo creator Seymour Papert, I was increasing my body-syntonic reasoning skills the whole time. These days I use these skills to get three stars on Angry Birds.

My other current interests include science fiction and science fact. I think that it is because of this that I was recently described by head marketeer Dawn as “the nerdiest member of the marketing team.” That is quite an accomplishment at a computer company, so I am very proud to have earned this honor. I am also a musician (guitar, bass, keys, and accordion) and use my 13 inch MacBook Pro to record using Logic Pro.

I look forward to writing more articles for Kibbles & Bytes. In the meantime, you can check out the articles I have written during my time at SDE:
