Happy Father's Day, C= and Ami aficionados!
The Fresno Commodore User Group has its next meeting from 10 a.m. to
1:30 p.m., Sunday, June 18 at --
Bobby Salazar's Mexican Restaurant
2839 North Blackstone Ave. (corner of Blackstone and Michigan)
Fresno, California
(559) 227-1686
Note the changed time for the meeting; we must be out of the room in order
for a Father's Day group to take over at 2.
Since our last meeting, two shows have happened -- the Bay Area Maker
Faire and the Pacific Commodore Expo NW. I'll have a report and
photos from both shows.
For the hardware part of the meeting, we'll examine a Video Toaster
board for an Amiga 2000 and an Emplant board for the A2000, the
latter board giving you classic Mac emulation when run on the Amiga.
Also we'll look at the PAL VIC-20 just modded by Ray Carlsen and the
low-cost universal Commodore power supply by Ray. Alex L. may be
bringing his hardware for everyone; this what he says, "...C128D...
Have GEOS ram expansion, Mini X-Pander, Final Cartridge III or Epyx
Fastload, SD2IEC made by my polish friend, Wimodem connected to my
cellphone so we can have it connected to BBS on the table in
restaurant. Have C=Key for keyboard and by that time I should have it
fully connected to LCD for both 40/80 columns. Also possibly I will
have my A2000 fully setup with Vampire 500 V2+ that I just received."
In software, we'll look at some of the various C64 and VIC-20
software shown at the two above shows.
Finally, I have a special C= video to show everybody.
Writing from Starbucks in Grants Pass, Oregon,
on the way back to California,
