Nice for the maybe/ and sceptics to see it live. Might turn them in the positive way.

I guess this is the first public demonstration of the X1000 in the UK since the VCF show in the middle of 2010?

Given Stephen's involved, it seems likely. :)

You better get permission for a video first? And probably get the video checked before uploading to YouTube?

Well, as I'm working in Thetford and not going home this weekend, I'm intending to make it down there.
See you Sunday, ANTs

 Re: The Amiga X1000 Experience @ ANT (UK)
ANT had an Xmas meal after the meeting... Oh, you want to know about the meeting itself?

The presentation was well done, although Stephen Jones did take a little while before he actually started talking about the X1000 !!! A video was recorded, so hopefully it will appear eventually. Afterwards people had a chance to try-out the X1000 first hand.

There weren't any crashes during presentation, and at one point he had three videos playing simultaneously without any noticable speed loss

Hopefully some others can write up their impressions, as it's a bit fiddly typing this on a phone (even with a mini keyboard).

Yes, I was being polite waiting for somebody to say they were ready, but in the end decided to kick it off myself.

Video should be up in next day or two.

Really enjoyed myself, sorry I could not go for dinner after, but thanks for making me welcome.

Here are a couple of videos of my demonstration, I have cropped a couple of minutes from the beginning and a minute at the end during the CD32 demo.

The first one is an introduction to me and general chat, the second straight into a brief demo of X1000. Please note I forgot to show MuiOWB while filming DOH!
