Greetings, C= and Ami aficionados!
     The Fresno Commodore User Group has its next meeting from 11 a.m. to 1+ p.m., Sunday, May 20, at  --

          The Pizza Pit Restaurant
          2705 N. Blackstone Ave. (corner of Blackstone and Princeton)
          Fresno, California

First up, we look over the new book, "The Future Was Here: The Commodore Amiga" by Jimmy Maher, and the slightly older book, "The Commodore 64 Book - 1982 to 199x" by Andrew Fisher.  Then in software (and with the help of a PAL C64), we present some of C64 games and demos from Cosine Systems.
     I'll report on my visit to the May 5-6 Vintage Computer Festival East.  Obtained from that same show, I'll show off the C64 music program, "The Notable Phantom", which has the strangest musical keyboard overlay I've ever seen.  Plus we'll see some raw video footage taken the show.
     Naturally, there will be updates on the July 28-29 Commodore Vegas Expo and on hardware projects.  We also try to catch up on the software and hardware that were left undemonstrated in previous meetings.

          Another full meeting,
          Robert Bernardo

P.S. Perhaps I can squeeze "Amiga, the Movie" into the agenda.
