Mapquest say <6hrs. I say plan for 6.5 to 8.5 depending on traffic
(Friday commute sucks!) ...oh and it's straight up the five once
you've done all that downtown/crosstown LA BS!

Depending on time of day you might hit 30/40mins of crosstown traffic
at I5/I80 interchange..homeward bound Friday commute etc.

Get >1 of you going and you've done it in about 3 tanks of gas ($95?
$100?) plus a weekend rental..$150?) for a grand total of $250/number
of Amiganuts

That's about the cost of a flight from Burbank to Sac, round trip for
one person!

PLus there's the roadtrip fun...burger joints etc.

I would love to grab a van and get al of you since I'll be on my way up from th emost southern part of California, but my family is comming too and I have no room in the Jeep. I am leaving on the 15th too and plan to spend some time in a few places on the way visiting family.

I recomend you all get in touch with vanpool and see what they charge. Its a cheap way to get a full size van. Lots of people here use that for the long commutes they make into work every day.

Also for all of you in the area wanting to take a look at and use a few Pegasos systems JKD and myself will be at the show for Genesi showing them off. We should have a great looking booth for everyone to check out!

Okay its just about here and I am in route to the show now visiting some family on the way.

I have decided to bring some of my goodies to sell off. If anyone is attending and has any interest at all in the following items let me know and I will hold them for a short time before putting them out.

A3000 NEW daughter card. (Final revision)
Several 3.5" SCSI and IDE hard drives ranging from 500MB to 4GB.
one 2.5" IDE 4GB drive
Several NIB 8139 PCI Ethernet cards tested on Mediator
Several PCMCIA Ethernet cards tested with the 3Com driver
LOTS of nearly mint Amiga magazines like the US Amigaworld, Amiga Format ect. ($1 each?)
Amiga floppy cable
Several Active SCSI Terminators and a few SCSI-2 to the wide type used on the CSPPC and MK III cards.
Two Soundblaster 4.1 Digital cards tested in Mediator, also new.

All of the money I get from these sales will be going to help a local youth group in San Diego as well.

See you at the Genesi booth!!!

not THAT part of California. in fact the only part of California that DOES suck is LA.
the rest of the state is actually quite beautiful.

anyway, you don't have to see any of California. just stay in the hotel!
