I miss those days, cut my baby teeth on a PDP 11/70 with RSX11M+ OS. Did Fortran 66, Fortran 77, Assembler and C code on them. We also had 11/34s and a really small one in the lab with a low serial number. It came with the pizza box drives and paper-tape reader/writers.
Pixelmator has enough compatibility with photoshop for my casual use. I seriously hope that they step up and create a competitive version to go head to head with photoshop. Price point for Pixelmator is $29.99 if I recall correctly.
You may want to re-think the software engineer title and aim for a management slot. You have experience on dealing with people, knowledge transfer, defining requirements and other skills that are required to herd cats and contractors.
Being 50+ myself, I find that my company values my skills as a manager and an ability to get the job done. I'm wasting my time coding and usually if I want to get my hands dirty, I'll take on Information architecture role and vet code for standards, risks, and approach.

ED was first, line editing only, then we had EDT (1978?). I remember seeing that for the first time and having my mind blown away...
