a couple of updates from the
amiwest blog to bring to your attention: first up is that sam crow will be at the show this year on behalf of apollo accelerators:
Back in the day, Apollo made some great accelerators for classic Amigas. Well, they're at it again. And they will be bringing an examplet to AmiWest 2016. Reportedly, that example will be their new accelerator for Amiga 500. You won't want to miss this exhibit! See their site here for more information.
Sam Crow will represent the company. Sam was with us in 2012 in another capacity. We welcome him back to the show and really look forward to seeing this latest product work wonders for an A500.
But you can't see it run if you don't come. Make your plans now - we're getting closer every day.
so if you're interested in playing with a system with the latest vampire installed, amiwest is your best bet. and the organizing committee has also finalized arrangements for group rates at the
show hotel:
Room rates for AmiWest 2016 are now available. Our instructions for this year are to call the hotel front desk at 916-923-1100 to place your room reservation. Request the group rate for AmiWest. Here are the rates:
- Two beds - $92.00 per night.
- Suite - $113.00 per night.
Both rates include a hot breakfast per night of stay.
Reservations at these rates are being accepted until September 12, 2016. We have blocks of rooms set aside at these rates. To get credit for our blocks, please ask for the AmiWest group rate when you call.
At this time, the group code on the website is still not active We do realize that calling the hotel for our international travelers may be impractical and we are working to fix this.
and lastly the amiwest organizing committee is soliciting feedback on why you, personally, still use and enjoy the amiga platform in 2016. more information
