Title: Next FCUG meeting - Sunday, August 19
Post by: RobertB on August 15, 2012, 01:04:54 PM
Happy new school year, C= and Ami aficionados!
     The Fresno Commodore User Group has its next meeting from 11 a.m. to 1+ p.m., Sunday, August 19, at  --

        Bobby Salazar's Mexican Restaurant
        2839 North Blackstone Ave. (corner of Blackstone and Michigan)
        Fresno, California

Note the new meeting location, just a few hundred feet north of our old location.
     This month we welcome back Daniel Strang, our far-traveling visitor from the Netherlands.  Last time Daniel visited us was 2 years ago.  Daniel will tell us about his latest Commodore projects and give us news from the Netherlands Commodore Show, coincidently the next show being this Saturday, August 18.
     Speaking of shows, we'll have a wrap-up of the July 28-29 Commodore Vegas Expo and see some raw video footage from CommVEx, including Roger Van Pelt's pre-recorded CommVEx presentation on printing with Commodore and HP inkjet printers.  Since prototypes were the rage at CommVEx this year, we'll talk about Jim Drew's Supercard Pro and Greg Alekel's Comet Plus Internet Modem, and examine BIT-C='s C128 VGA adapter.
     Finally, for your hardware pleasure, we'll have on hand a newly-obtained, fully-working CommodoreOne complete in a PC tower and Richard Hough's Amiga 3000 with OS 3.1.

          Truly,
          Robert Bernardo
          Fresno Commodore User Group
