On this day 25 years ago on January 30th, 1982 a small group of people held an initial meeting to organize what became Autodesk.
A sincere thank you John Walker for all that he and Autodesk has done for computing and people such as architects and designers around the world to help shape what we have now. If you look around you, many of the things you might see built and designed by man in the past 20+ years may have been designed by people using Autodesk products.
