Given the success of our former get-together, another Amiga event is being hosted here in Adelaide on 25 May 2015.   This is on a Monday night which will coincide with the Adelaide  Amiga/Computer user group that is held weekly in the same venue.

Summary:

When: 25 May 2015, 7:30pm start

Where:
Clarence Park Community Centre
72-74 East Ave
Black Forest, SA

[I have attached a photograph of what the venue looks like just so people  do not confuse the building with the other community centre next door.  

There is car park spacing available around the back of this building and you can enter it on the left hand side.]

What will occur:

Attendees are encouraged to bring their Amiga rigs (or other relevant systems)  along and set them up in the large conference room.  This will hopefully  create some topics of discussion and/or demonstration amongst everyone.  

While there are ample power-points available in the room, you may wish to bring any power-boards or other connectors to make sure that your systems are appropriately connected.

If you require internet access, then please specify if you require an Ethernet or Wifi connection.

We will also provide coffee/tea and other refreshments to the attendees.

Regards to everyone,

George

Sounds great! Count me in :-)

By the way given the close proximity of the date to the 30th Anniversary of Amiga perhaps we can just call it the Adelaide Amiga 30 event?

Certainly make it more attractive to bring more Amiga's along and try to get a complete wall covering the amiga history happening! I can certainly help with some of that :-)

@Epsilon

- Great that you can make it again!

- Yes, sure we could have the title as "Adelaide Amiga 30 Event" - Amazing that the Amiga has been around for so long!

- Yes, that suggestion of having all the Amiga's set up sounds good!  Hopefully we can attract some of the rarer models such as the 500+, 600 and of course the 4000!

@Haranguer

- Great that you are also making it again!

Cheers,

George

The A3000 is buried somewhere in my back room I think. Still haven't  changed the hard drive out yet so it just boots up to a green screen  asking for a password. I will see what I can do:) Is any one on this  forum an Amiga hacker?

To everyone viewing this thread I wish to make the following announcement.

A new website has been launched for the Adelaide Amiga User Group.  The link for this site is as follows:

http://adelaideamiga.blogspot.com.au/

This website features an interactive blog as well as information regarding the current meeting arrangements and main events held throughout the year.

Credit for this site goes to Epsilon, a fellow South Australian and a very active Amiga enthusiast, who conceived the idea of having a site and put it into effect.  

Kind regards,

George

Hi all,

Final reminder that the Adelaide Amiga meeting is on tonight, starting from 7:30pm!

I plan to bring my Sam460CR (AmigaOS4.1FE), Powerbook G4 (MorphOS 3.8) to show off a soon to be released Amiga game called Wings Battlefield in LAN gaming mode for people present to try out, and a CDTV on display for the Classic Amiga nostalgics!

I know some others are bringing Classic Amiga equipment too - promising to be a lot of fun!

Event location and details are here:

http://adelaideamiga.blogspot.com.au

Look forward to seeing you there! :-)

Catcha,
Epsilon

Shoot! I have transportation problems. Seems I can catch public transport in but there's no guarantee there will be any services when I leave, whenever that'll be.

Unless something happens, expect me not to show up. Much to my disappointment!

Thank you to everyone who attended.  It was truly a wonderful evening and a great way to interact with everyone.

A new blog post has been made with plenty of photo's from the event:

http://adelaideamiga.blogspot.com.au/2015/05/adelaide-amiga-30th-anniversary-event.html

We are going to hold another one of these events later this year in September.  Date will be finalised soon.

To those who were unable to make it, we look forward to seeing you later this year!

In the meantime, enjoy using your Amigas ! :cool:

George

23 People. Well done George! Looks like a nostalgic night. Would have loved to attend but the 8 hour drive from Melbourne is a tad too much.
