Dear Patrick,

I believe I have the qualifications you are looking for. I consider
myself a real team player and I have an extensive background in embedded
systems and project management.  I have worked with the Intel RMX real
time executive in a cross development environment, as well as a few
others including VRTX for the MC68000 series and successfully created a
Linux based 68000 cross development environment utilizing the GNU C/C++
compiler and libraries.

I have extensive experience with Linux and several flavours of Unix in
both the personal and commercial realms including the developmennt of
device drivers. I had been involved with Corel Computer's Netwinder
project just before the company was sold to Rebel.com.

I have managed a number of different projects including the development
of a real time product tracking system for large scale radiological
medical sterilization machines for a major company in the field.

Please find attached a copy of my resume in text format. I shall be
telephoning you later today to follow up on this, answer any
questions you may have and possibly arrange for an interview.

SIncerely,

Francis Pinteric
