Dear Amigans,

Here are the details of how to get to the meeting on this website below :

Sponsors and exhibitors welcome


Britain?s largest celebration of vintage computing is to be held at The National Museum of Computing (TNMOC) in Bletchley Park from 19-20 June 2010.

On my picture site, http://nbache.dk/ I have put some new pictures, this time from the Danish Amiga meeting held last Saturday, January 30th, in V?rl?se near Copenhagen.

Even though the report and the picture captions are in Danish, a big part of the captions are names, and the pictures of course speak for themselves. So feel free to have a look, even if you don't understand Danish .

Best regards,

Niels

Well as we all hopefully know this summer is the 25th Anniversary of our much loved Amiga 1000 and the birth of the operating system we all want to see back in the limelight.

To celebrate I would like to request that people give me their stories about how they came to the Amiga and what they enjoy about using it. This I will publish on the Amiga25.com website under a new heading of "Living with Amiga".
