The games were sold under the name Moraffware (sometimes written as MoraffWare) and usually included his surname in the title: Moraff's Revenge, Moraff's World, Moraff's Stones.[1] Childhood and careerRaised in Ithaca, New York, Steve Moraff's father was an IBM employee who worked on Cornell's mainframe and his mother was a child development expert. Moraff inherited his father's affinity for computers and began programming in a free computer lab provided by a local non-profit trying to start a science museum in Ithaca. He briefly attended the Alternative Community School but later dropped out of school and after taking some courses at the local Community College, he obtained his GED.{{citation needed|date=April 2017}} In the late 1980s, Moraff began programming games for MS-DOS-based computers, culminating in the 1988 release of Moraff's Revenge,[2] which was distributed using a shareware model. This launched his career as a computer game developer and the company that would become Moraffware and later Software Diversions, Inc. (SDI), based in Florida, which specializes in Mahjong solitaire-type games.[3] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Abandonware games published by Moraffware|url=http://www.myabandonware.com/browse/publisher/moraffware-ev/}} {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Moraff, Steve}}{{videogame-bio-stub}}2. ^Moraff's Games, RPGDot, 2001-07-08, accessed 2008-3-24 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.softwarediversions.com/catalog/index.php|title=Moraff's MagJongg}} 5 : American video game designers|American computer programmers|1963 births|Living people|Shareware |
