A little background...
I am The Magician (AKA: Ben Perkins), founder and CEO of Magic Soft Inc. I started this company with the ultimate goal of creating the perfect operating system - VOS. Someday... If that happens, we'll probably make our own hardware too, because even the best OS is crap without the right system.
Since I'm still years away from doing anything like that, I'll just upload all the random programs that I write until then. I also make electronics, so I'll upload information about any projects that I think are noteworthy.
Here are some frequently asked questions about us:
Who are we?
Well, 'we' is technically incorrect, it's just me. I'm a highschooler who loves to write software and build things.
So... What's with this whole 'we' thing?
Uhhh... Sounds better? More professional, I suppose.
Are you programs for Windows?
Yes, all of the programs found here are written in Autoit, so they are for Windows, and only Windows. Sorry!
I've seen some of this hardware (or something very similar) before, what's up with that?
At this point, all of the kits I have for sale were designed with help from others
So... Why are you selling them?
Having circuit boards made can be expensive, and gathering parts can be time-consuming and I want to do this as a job someday, so I am currently 'practicing' by ordering PCBs, parts, assembling kits, and all that fun stuff. Once the business speeds up a bit, I will begin to produce more kits of my own design. (All kits here are under the Creative Commons License, you may feel free to edit, modify or distribute them, but all attribution to the original creators must be kept and all source files must be shared).
Feedback and recognition
Popular Science (!) - They called my MiniPOV program a "great program". Even though the article is really praising Limor for making the MiniPOV, I'm still very proud of it.
Mitch Altman - That's right, one of my idols,
Mitch Altman, creator of the TV-B-Gone and several other projects called my MiniPOV software "a really cool software utility".
Feel free to contact me with any feedback (positive or otherwise).
