Ok it's confirmed, I'll be at Amiwest! How about you?

[redrumloa]

Just mailed out a check for the tickets and banquet. I'll be reserving hotel and plane tickets in a minute or 2:-) Believe it or not this will be my first Amiga show. There have never been any in this part of the country, so I finally decided I will fly all the way to the left coast to see one. What the hell? Things are exciting now with alot of things happening on the alternative platform and the possibility that the official platform may be finished this year. Should be interesting!

I'll be there and I'm bringing an ex-Amigan friend(since the wife won't go). So are YOU going to be there? If I can fly from Florida to California what is YOUR excuse if you're not? :-?

@Wayne

That's great! And you're going to be THE guest speaker at the banquet right?  :-D

[redrumloa]

I don't want to discourage anyone from attending the banquet, but I (and my crew) will only go to the banquet if the guest speaker is someone aside from Bill McEwen or "Fleecy" Moss.

I thought I read you were scheduled to speak at the banquet :-? Seriously! Damn :-(

Like a child who has seen the circus one too many times, watching the clowns get in and out of the tiny car loses it's fascination.

 :lol: Good analogy!

[redrumloa]

I know many evil people who'd pay good money to watch the awkward moment when the two Bills bump into each other

LOL Bill Mc would shrill like a girl and Bill B would fight dirty and kick him in the groin? I'd pay to see that too. Or maybe it would just be a cat fight like two broads going at it?

The above is just a joke, well except the part where I say I'd pay to see it;-)

[redrumloa]

In all seriousness I will be bringing cash in hand to purchase the the Pegasos G4 upgrade and other goodies to compliment my Peggy. It's nice to have a shipped product in hand that works FAAAST.

There isn't a new Amiga or Amiga OS, there won't be a new Amiga nor Amiga OS at the show...

If Linux running on the AmigaOne doesn't float your boat, what's wrong with going to see MOS on Pegasos? You may actually like it!  :-?

No matter what you guy's say I played with one the other day. Might be a nice system if ever finished. PS how bout making Peg one run first before waiting for II.

You may have "played" with it the other day, possibly, but I OWN one so I think I can speak with at least a little authority on the subject. While definately not perfect, MorphOS works quite well. But what is perfect? It's a young OS that's getting better and better and honestly it is far superior to my prior 060/66-Prometheus/Voodoo3-Delfina-OS3.9-etc system.

If You Peg boy's weren't Such@$#%. I would be buying them too.

I'm a Peg boy and a what? Peggy/MOS and A1/os4 are products not a popularity competetion. If you are interested in the product you buy it. YEESH this isn't a cult. Well maybe AIW.NET is a cult but the rest of us are not.

How many were up and online within an hour of unwraping thier new boards.

25 minutes. Probably 15 minutes putting the motherboard and drives in the case etc, 10 minuets configuring the software. I didn't time it but I was online VERY quick, it was easier setting up than OS3.9 or even WinXP for sure.

@Kurt

I can't figure out if you are trying to be humorous or if you have serious Amiga Inc hero-worship syndrome?
