Wish someone got to organize something in so-cal, possibly L.A. area (don't look at me though, got no cash no contacts and no place where to host it) :(

Seriously?
I was contemplating crossing the entire continent to attend this show.
You couldn't travel from SoCal?

Ha, glad I wasn't the first one to say something.  ;)  I know at least a couple people traveled more than 7,000 miles for this event.  Oh well, maybe he'll think the trip'll be worth it for Amiga40, 50, etc.  :)

Thanks so much for posting all this.

I'm bummed I couldn't make it.  This was a big one...

I work most weekends which makes these things hard (I've yet to be able to make an East Coast VCF, which is much closer) but the 30th in CA was really special.  I should have subbed out of all my gigs.

Regardless of the afore mentioned regrets, I do appreciate all the photos and videos!!!  Thanks!

Great blog!  I LOL'd at the picture of the "Walker prototype".  ;)

Yes it was a good read. I see the X1000 and X5000 made the group photo.

I would love to know what the original Amiga engineers make of the AmigaNG market today.
