  • Next SCCAN meeting - Saturday, Sept. 10, 2022

    From Robert Bernardo@3:770/3 to All on Sat Sep 3 21:21:05 2022
    Happy Labor Day, C= and Ami comrades!

    The next meeting of the Southern California Commodore & Amiga Network is Saturday, Sept. 10, from 2 to 5+ p.m. at

    Panera Bread Restaurant
    19662 Nordhoff Street
    Northridge, California
    (818) 407-9400

    For discussion, we will talk about the August Vintage Computer
    Festival West, the October Amiwest Show 2022, L.A. Maker Faire 2023,
    and the Commodore Los Angeles Super Show 2023!

    We'll also discuss September-October happenings the U.K. and Europe, specifically AmigaKit, the Lincoln Amiga Group, the Amiga North
    Thames club, the Home Computer Museum (Netherlands), and the
    Netherlands Commodore Show (hey, what about the Amiga 37th in
    Germany?).

    The Amiga 600 returns, as does the Ultimate 64. We'll check out the
    latest C64 games and demos.

    This is probably the last meeting before I see C= repair person, Ray Carlsen, in November, so bring your C= gear, and I will deliver it to
    him in Washington state.

    As always, feel free to bring any other Commodore and Amiga hardware/software that you wish to show off!

    Truly,
    Robert Bernardo
