Originally bought the first Mac, an SE20, to design kitchens. Over £6000 was spent on the hardware - Mac, printer and A3 plotter - and the Planet software. I was the first kitchen studio in the Peterborough area to use a CAD system. Not only was that innovative and brave but it also got me away from the Amstrad word processor and into the world of ‘proper computing’.


It’s hard to conceive now that the 20mb hard drive was backed up onto twenty-five 720k floppy disks - today’s 2TB drive would need 2.7 million of them!


That was late 1987, even pre-dating OS 6 by a few months.


I quickly found out that some of my friends were using Macs in their design or printing businesses and I was frequently called upon, for favours, to help them out when things weren’t working quite so well on the basis that I was a few pages ahead of them in the manual!

As time progressed I did more and more support work on an informal basis until it got to the point where I had more favours in the pipeline than I could ever use and so decided to put it on a more professional footing.

As a result, I became an Apple Certified Service Engineer, along with a young colleague, in 2000.


Animacs was, from 1997, run as a trading subsidiary of our main limited company but in 2005 was given its own legal status and Animacs Ltd was formed.


The rest, as they say is history.


Whatever your needs are, whether it’s just advice or a full conversion of your business from PCs to Macs then call me, Tony Green, for the best advice possible without any obligation whatsoever. You’ll be glad you did!
