Title: Amiga 2008 Calendar
Post by: arnljot on February 01, 2008, 09:08:25 AM

Ok,

It seems like 2008 is going to be a fun year. So which Amiga events are there still?

I think the two major ones are "Pianeta Amiga", Italy. And AmiWest, US.

Both are in the fall. Sept/Oct, right?

Which other events are there? Please list with dates or approximate dates and with priority :)

I think I want to pack my suit case once more this year! ;)

The Dutch Commodore Users Group has a meeting 6 times a year. Not strictly Amiga, but still a good number of visitors - varying between 20-50 I guess...

The computers that are present each meeting usually range from the C64 to the AmigaOne...

We're half done with the year now.

Have any dates for the fall been set? Italy, US? Come on, I want to use my passport! :)

@arnljot:
No need to whip up your passport, just come to the Solskogen (http://solskogen.demoscene.no/index.php) demoscene party next weekend :)  Amiga, C64, Atari, Mac, PC and lots of BBQ, beer and demos. :)

@Skurk

I know, and it pains me. But I'm out of the country the next two weeks. Summer vaccation in Crete.

BTW, maybe I'm too old at soon to be 32 to be at a scene party? ;-P

I'm 33, and I'm far from the youngest attendant :)

Are they all coders that attend, or can non-coders like me also just come by to enjoy the bbq and talent on display?

I'm gonna make sure not to miss this next year then.
