Well, the show is over and into the history books.
I arrived very late on Saturday due a death in the family. Was told by the organizer that the traffic all day was greater than both days last year.
I brought my Amiga 500 and Minimig. Actually booted both up with the same game, Faery Tale Adventure, and had the monitor on a switch box so people could compare the 2.
Had several people comment on how much smaller the Minimig is compared to the 500 with the sidecar attached. They were also very impressed with the compability between the 2.
Surprisingly enough, my Minimig wasn't the only FPGA board at the show. There was also a COCO board, an Apple II board, and a OSI board. All of them were very impressive. Of course, the OSI board was probably the easiest emulation as there wasn't any GUI to emulate.
Gil, the organizer of the event, said he's going to go again next year, but hopefully will be able to schedule during the school year to increase attendance.
Hopefully next year we'll see some of y'all there!
