Mike Singleton (born 1951 liverpool UK)-(died October 10, 2012)

He was also my first employer, I used to go straight from school to his company for his wisdom and generosity, He was an amazing boss, single father of two young boys but most importantly he was my friend.

The last 12 months where hard for him he was diagnosed with cancer of the jaw and had to have it removed but he always kept his spirits up, I even sat with him in our local pub for our first post-op beer! alas last week he died in Switzerland of natural causes

The guy was way ahead of his time, check his Wikipedia page for more on his personal life.

I just wanted for you guys to understand where most of the roots of the games you play today came from, so next time you pop in a disk, raise a glass and say "Cheers Singo!"
