AmiWest '08

[T3000]

I had a great time, been years since I been to one. Rummaged through SACC pile-o-goddies a couple of times. Wanted to get one of those Indivision units for my A1200, but I spent way too much earlier on a PicassoIV and other hardware.
Glad it's just over the "hill" for me. Almost a 3 hour drive... Not sure that I meet everyone, but I was the most all the day. Thanks to da9000 for attempting to recap one of my A3640s. I owe him a few $ for the caps eventough the board is bad.
I'll be planning a bit earlier next year and maybe bring down a few of my Amigas and hardware collection for display.

The coolest thing I got at AmiWest was the outside box cover to the PicassoII. Which is kinda ironic because I had just accquired a PicassoIV before the show and was going to put the PII away after the transplant. The box cover was the last of the PII items I had been piecing together over the years. First I got the card for like $50. Then a month later, the cable and original software. $10. Quite a few months later, the manuals for the PII, Main Actor, TVPaint jr. and the box. Free. All from different sources. Well, now that the PIV transplant has been done, the PicassoII is wrapped, and boxed with all it's components, tucked up on the self for safe keeping. :-D
