AmiWest 2003 advertising push gets underway

[AmigaSource]

If your undecided I HIGHLY RECOMMENDED GOING!  SACC puts on a FIRST RATE SHOW!!!  This will be my third year in a row!
   Even though it's small when compared to any 'normal' computer show it's GREAT to be in a room with more than ONE Amiga user.  
   I plan on taking lots of pictures, doing an interview or two for the website and hopefully buying a bunch of stuff!!  I have my fingers crossed for an A1-XE with OS4.  (ya right!)  Come on guys!!  Take my $$$$$

@BBRV

We would do a Show in the UK -- no problem. If someone wants to get it organized we will fund it.

Thats a great offer but i doubt anyone in UK would do a show now untill OS4 comes out and i agree because there is nothing interesting in seeing Linux running on hardware.

[meerschaum]

Paul what about Pegasos/MorphOS people and those interested in them? surely they would attend.

Yes they would attend and i would aswell but the thing is most user groups over here will not do a show untill OS4 is released.

@Paul

It's a shame that they feel that they must tie a show into OS4.  If it is financially difficult to have a full show without OS4, might I suggest a party or a picnic.  Something that is regional, that could still bring several user groups together, and could possibly bring in a dealer?  A full fledged show isn't necissary to have some fun with your Amiga-Friends.  Even something as simple as an annual meeting of two or three user-groups can be a lot of fun.

You don't need a large venu and a huge overhead to have a really cool show.  A little imagination can go a long way.  I'm willing to bet that there's someone in your user's group that has access to some place that could host 30 to 100 people. :-D

Keyword == FUN!

[downix]

@bbrv & @Wayne

Yes, do it in September when it is incredibly hot, force everyone
indoors to watch the show and see the hoopla.

Also, incase any non-desired people show up, set them up outside.  

[The_Editor]

Thats a VERY generous offer BB.

C'mon Paul ...

I second you to do it !!   (Holds hand up) :-D

[MarkTime]

s'mone should pay me to do a show too, I'd call it the sMarkTime's wacky attacky tradeshow

that would be s.w.a.t. for short....and I bet you thought the s was a typo.
