Our next Adelaide Retro Computing event is being held this Friday May 13th, 2016 at the Eastwood Community Centre from 7:30PM!
People are encouraged to bring their Vintage Computers/Consoles along to create a show-and-tell atmosphere. For this meeting we are particularly interested in seeing Vintage IBM PC & Compatible systems prior to the year 2000!
If you don't have one of these systems - no problem! Please bring along any Retro computer system you may have as all are welcome - we still want to see it! Amiga systems of course are very welcome!
If you are bringing machines along, please arrive at 7pm to set-up before the event starts. Thank you.
At the meeting on Friday we're also giving away a 286 Kambrook "portable" as a door prize. It's Full of 80's goodness, a 286 processor, monochrome LCD and two 720k floppy drives. It works and it comes with two 720k disks, power adapter and instruction manual! Attend the event and you're eligible to win.
Aron has kindly agreed to bring his soldering kit and diagnostic kit this month to help attendees who might need some small soldering work done! We ask a small $2 fee to cover costs for this. It would be helpful to let us know here if you want soldering done so we can make sure we can help with your requirements.
Extension cables/power-boards are useful to bring to make sure you are able to connect your equipment up!
There is a small cover charge of $3 per person to cover the costs of hiring the venue, etc.
