Happy St. Patty's Day, C= and Ami aficionados!
     The Fresno Commodore User Group has its next meeting from 11 a.m. to 1+ p.m., Sunday, March 17, at --

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

This month we concentrate on Creative Micro Design's SuperCPU! With all the renewed interest due to VICE now having SuperCPU 64 emulation, we take a look at what the SCPU can do with real Commodores. We'll look at the following programs under SCPU control -- 3D Pool, Asteroids emulator, Zoomania, Silicon Dreams, and WinC64.     Last month we were not able to demonstrate the C64 video digitizer, Video Byte II (including Super Explode V5.0). This time we'll have a gender changer for its video cable, and we'll use it on a C64 (instead of last month's SX-64).
     In Amiga hardware, I'm lugging in the Amiga 1200 Tower which runs Amiga OS 3.9. More specifications on it can be found at

     Last but not least, we'll try out some of the latest games for the VIC-20.

               Truly,
               Robert Bernardo
