G'day from Adelaide

[Epsilon_]

sounds like an Adelaide meet may be in order, up to 4 active South Australian members so far, any others?

Hi All,

I live in Adelaide too! Lived here on and off for almost 25 years now...

I have been a member at Amigaworld.net for a long while and I check Amiga.org website from time to time - only time to post in one place really though so it has always been Amigaworld.net....sorry amiga.org!

Saw some fellow South Australian Amiga users pop up here in the last few days so thought I should sign up to Amiga.org so I could say hello and introduce myself!

As I said before I am from Adelaide, Australia, and I have and still own  many and various Amiga (and other) hardware!

I started using Amiga's in  1988 when I helped my Perth High School's Art department setup an Amiga 1000! My  first Amiga was an Amiga 500 in late 1988.

Since then I have owned pretty  much every Amiga out there except a CDTV...

I have started keeping a blog on the AmigaOne X1000. If anyone is interested, it is at http://amigax1000.blogspot.com.au/

At one stage I was part of an  Amiga demo group called "The Experience", and we released our last AGA demo  "Terminal" in 1998. I think it is available on pouet.net if you are interested!  My handle was "Epsilon", hence my name! My avatar came from  our long closed Experience website which I used to run. I went to Coven in 1996, and 1997. If you were there I was the guy playing all the Amiga 1200 AGA demos all night...

At the moment my  main completed Amiga hardware is AmigaOne X1000 (my pride and joy), Amiga 4000T/060, Amiga 4000D/PPC-060, Amiga  1200/060, Amiga 2000/030, CD32, eMac (MorphOS 3.0) and a Minimig. I currently play around with Kryoflux Amiga write  support (since reading about it in Amiga Future) and it works great!

I  guess this qualifies me as an Amiga Geek!

Look forward to seeing you all around in  the forums either here or at Amigaworld.net.

Catcha,

I know but atleast it gives plenty of notice.
 
So far we have 4 confirmed attendees:
 
me
djos
ammojammo
haranguer
 
Cameng, Epsilon, can you make it?
 
How about Cafe bravo on the parade in Norwood?

 
Sorry for the delay in responding - been off sick in bed the whole of last week.
 
Cafe Bravo sounds good to me, look forward to catch up with some fellow Adelaidean Amigans!
 
I think in the first instance getting together informally is good, and then we can decide after that whether we want to have a community centre room hired or similar based regular event that allows us to bring machines, etc. I missed out on the user group thing when it was most popular, and with such a small Amiga community in Adelaide, it would be good to get something happening locally so we can help each other out and learn more about our Amigas.

Lunch is preferred for me.

I would still like to attend at the cafe on saturday as planned, but due to some urgent unrelated personal medical issues that came up today I may not be able to make it.

Please mark me down as a maybe.

I really want to go but attendance is dependant on factors beyond my control tomorrow. If I can I will update tomorrow.

Catcha,

Really sorry all but today's medical results mean I am unable to attend tomorrow's meeting. Really sorry and I hope I can go to the next meeting as I really want to go.

Catcha,
Epsilon
