« on: July 26, 2015, 03:40:48 PM »

Great stuff!

Just a heads up: the presentations video is missing audio for the first 20 minutes

there will be a live stream today, although the show is starting late due to, ahem, festivities lasting well into the morning and folks needing a later start. :lol:

anyway -- if you have a system capable of viewing streams from youtube, point your browser to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OkjMuoXFBJc. the stream will start shortly, although will be unable to show the screening of viva amiga. a big thanks to mbrantley and tekmage for all their work!

I see Cammy in the back of the room in full costume in there somewhere. Glad she could make it.

We do need more stuff on the east coast.  Closest we had to an Amiga event was all the presenters up at VCF-X in NJ, a few months ago:  https://www.flickr.com/photos/oldsmobile_mike/sets/72157649734735584

(Amiga pics are mixed in, most are about halfway through that photoset)

(edit: I didn't realize my stupid descriptions show up when I send links this way, I should probably edit that, haha)
Amiga 500: 2MB Chip|16MB Fast|30MHz 68030+68882|3.9|Indivision ECS|GVP A500HD+|Mechware card reader + 8GB CF|Cocolino|SCSI DVD-RAM
Amiga 2000: 2MB Chip|136MB Fast|50MHz 68060|3.9|Indivision ECS + GVP Spectrum|Mechware card reader + 8GB CF|AD516|X-Surf 100|RapidRoad|Cocolino|SCSI CD-RW

@All

What was Peter Cherna saying about "Intuition" code that Mike and so RJ never forgive him until now? (oxymoron somthing...)

A lot of former Amiga/CBM devs were presents, was all of them asked to come? I guess that if I was one of them I wouldn't ahve missed that event.


Thanks
Kamelito

Agree we definitely need more East Coast stuff to go to. I remember in the day when we had World of Commodore and AmiExpo both in Manhattan. Those were the days!

Love your pics though from the events, both of them.

Thanks for the shout out here about the VCFE-X exhibits that I was a part of. we're already thinking up ideas for next years exhibit. Long as both they and we still work, i think there will always be Amigas at VCFE

Guessing still no fixed video from day 1? Still has no audio for first 20 minutes. Or was that a recording problem? If the latter I hope someone can supply a recording of it and I'm sure someone can edit in the audio track to fix the missing one.

I may start looking around to see if anything is out there. Those of us unable to attend are hungry like a pack of wolves for this.

I love the talk of how Amiga was developed. Just amazing what they did back then with the tools they had. To see the Loraine and other dev models makes me wish I had been able to go.

@pwermonger

those videos are just the captured streams. mbrantley (and others) are working on more professionally edited videos for the presentations and showing the exhibits, etc. as i know about 'em, i'll be sure to post 'em here. :)

What a party!!!

Incredible amount of Amiga founders present. Great conversations. Crazy amounts of beer consumed. I still can't believe we were not kicked out Saturday night... LOL.

Only Amiga makes it possible.
