I held off on booking my trip to AmiWest and saved thanks to the Canadian dollar reaching parity with the American dollar for the first time in over 30 years. I arrived late Friday night which is usually the day before the show date but not this year. Due to a scheduling mishap the show organizers had lost the Saturday to another, even stranger, group of people from some empowerment training company that enjoyed chanting in the hallways. Some quick thinking moved the show to Sunday with the banquet on Saturday evening after all the newly empowered people had left.

The Amigahellas will attend at DTE 2007 (http://www.dte.gr/default.asp?pid=1&la=2), the largest exhibition of digital technology in Greece. From the 8th until 11th of November the visitors of the exhibition will have an opportunity to see and use old and new hardware ranging from the C64, A1000, Amstrad 6128 through to the Pegasos, MicroAmigaOne and the Efika.

The Amigahellas is the biggest Greek Amiga community, with many active users. Visit us at http://www.amigahellas.gr and download our free Amiga magazine from http://mag.amigahellas.gr
