Hi All!
With AmiWest 2009 on October 16 through the 18th in Sacaramento California, it's just over 2 months away. Time to start making your plans to attend! This year will be a different show from the last few years with a number ways: a Classic Clinic Friday night, seminars, and a show floor open both Saturday and Sunday.
The Classic Clinic is a chance for folks to bring their classic Amigas for a tune up. Got an old battery that needs replacing, have an expansion card to install, or want to migrate to Amiga Forever. There will be a number of folks with the tools and the time to help you
out. This will be happening Friday night at 5 pm and free food will be served! Special thanks to Computer Connections for their generous support to make this happen.
Seminars will be happening before the show opens Saturday and Sunday. The topics and schedule are still being worked out but expect seminars on using Amiga OS4.1, Programming, and expert advice on major Amiga applications. We hope to have a list of the seminars and their schedule published about a month before the show. We will also have an area on the show floor for presentations of new software. If you would like host a seminar or present during the show please contact us at info(at)amiwest.net
Return of two full days of the show floor! We have the space for both Saturday and Sunday with free admission courtesy of Amigakit and Individual Computers. The show will open at 11 am, after the seminars and close at 5 PM Saturday and 2 PM Sunday.
Logo Contest! The final note is that AmiWest is looking for a new logo for this years show. Pleas see http://amigaprez.wordpress.com/ for more details.

Well I hope you have a very successful show this year. Wish I could attend but it's just too far for me.

Sorry to hear you guys can't make it. I'm hopeful this will be a great AmiWest. One thing that would really help is forwarding the news of the show to other Amiga users. I fear there are many interested folks who don't read the news sites regularly and will miss the updates. If you know classic users they will find the Friday night even really appealing as we will be replacing batteries, fixing capacitors, installing software and even helping to move their systems to Amiga Forever.
Cheers,
Bill "tekmage" Borsari
