[magnetic]

*1st Meeting of New York City Pegasos User Group *

 NYCPUG ( http://nyc-pug.org ) in co-operation with  Magnetic Sytems ( http://magneticsystemsnyc.com/)

 Brings you an OPEN HOUSE featuring Live Studio Demonstrations of a Pegasos System running MorphOS 1.4, Debian Linux, and Mac On Linux running MacOS X.

!YOU ARE INVITED!

 

This is the debut meeting of the club and we are interesting in getting people there to experience the Pegasos and MorphOS first hand. How we are organizing it is as follows:

Date: Saturday.September 20th 2003.12pm - 5pm
Location: Magnetic Systems Studio - NYC

What we would like to do is get people to email
to RSVP. The meeting/demonstration will be postponed if less than 20 people say they are coming. The reason for this is that the Open House is intented to let people learn about the Pegasos system, Genesi, NYCPUG, and each other. It will be a social and professional gathering. Refreshments will be provided for all. If you have any interest in Amiga, Linux, MacOs, MOrphOS this is your chance to have a good time and see what the Pegasos can do in an installed studio environment.
   The Pegasos will be shown connected to my LAN with an Amiga 4000T PPC and an Apple Ibook running OSX Jaguar. This LAN is connected to the internet via a router and ADSL connection. This way you will get to see how fast this system is in Real World internet tests. The Pegasos is also integrated with our video/audio studio and is outputed to an NEC 18in LCD monitor and a professional audio mixer.

 Throughout the open houses various aspects of Pegasos will be shown:

MorphOS 1.4
Amiga Net Radio (Live Streaming of MP3s and downloading of songs for playback later)
Pro Station Audio
MAME ( and the chance to play games like JOUST, Pac Man, Zaxxon, and more)
Debian Linux running KDE 3.1 Desktop
DVD Playback on MOrphOS
Modern Games like Quake2, Freespace, Feeble Files, Birdie Shoot and more
Mac On Linux running Mac OS 9.2 and OS X Jaguar
and much more!

This is a one of a kind event and will be fun and informative for all.

To reserve a spot to make it happen (we need 20 ppl) please email. Also, if you have questions or concerns.

The open house will be hosted by myself and Jake M (Meers) It is very easy to access right off of the BQE (278) Highway. People from NY, NJ, and CT would have no trouble finding it or getting there. You will NOT have to go into Manhattan to get here. When you email full directions will be given.

Thank you very much and we'll see you there!

 Thanks for the support!

The STUDIO CAN BE ACCESSED FROM MOST MAJOR SUBWAYS It is the 3rd stop on the "L" train from Manhattan.

Out of Towners can catch the A,C, or E from Penn Station or Port Authority to 14th St and jump on the L.

Very convienent location!

Easy to drive to as well

Any question just ask. please RSVP if you are coming.

Cecelia -
would you like to do an Image Fx demo?

[cecilia]

would you like to do an Image Fx demo?

everyone seems to always ask me that!
i wonder why? :-o

if i can make it, what the heck!

i assume this will be on a MorphOS system? that means installing ifx4.5 on it. not exactly an easy thing, btw.

@ downix

Oh man, did you say boynton beach FL?  I just moved from there last september, I was looking for amiga users in the area, damn, it would have been great to know another amiga user was in the area.

I used to live off of military trail and boynton beach blvd, in heron point, and I used to work at blockbuster video on congress & boynton beach blvd.

so close but yet now so far, oh well

man, I miss the macaroni grill!!!

@Cecilia
 It would be cool if you want to do an IFX demo, but I can do one I've been using it for years myself. Its version 4.0.

@WarPiper

 Will you be coming to the Open House. Pete, we missed you at the QAUG Demo! If your are coming please email.

@BBRV

Thanks for your support and I look forward to talking to you further

so you have ifx 4 on a pegasos?
does it have arexx on it?
that's one thing i didn't get to work at AmiWest after installing ifx4.5
(it's possible, just didn't have all the needed files).

i'd love to bring a friend who has never seen amiga's - just hears me braging all the time!

[magnetic]

Cecilia

It would be great to bring your friend. I really want to attract all kinds of computers users not just Amiga people.
 I have Arexx working fine on 1.4 check out the MorhpZone.org FAQ section and it will give you details.
