Happy Summer, C= and Ami aficionados!
     The Fresno Commodore User Group has its next meeting from 11 a.m. to 2:00+ p.m., Sunday, June 23, at

  Panera Bread Restaurant
  3590 W Shaw Ave. (corner of W. Shaw Ave. and Marty Ave.)
  Fresno, CA 93711
  (559) 271-0104

Note the date for our meeting!  It is NOT this Sunday, due to Father's Day.
     For this month, I'll report on the June 8-9 Pacific Commodore Expo NW, we'll discuss the latest happenings with August 10-11 Commodore Vegas Expo, and we'll try to figure what happened to the Maker Faire organization.
     In hardware/software, we have the return of the Amiga CD32 with its slew of CDs, especially the CD that was the hit of the Bay Area Maker Faire and PaCommEx, Street Fighter II Turbo!  For the C64 (or Ultimate 64 that has the optional user port adapter), the Tech Sketch Music Port keyboard returns, which was the hit of the Commodore Los Angeles Super Show and the Pacific Commodore Expo.  We'll look at SpeedCalc 2019, which was based on the classic C64 SpeedCalc.  If v.p. Roger brings his VIC-20 with 24K ram expander or if I plug in the Plus/4, we can try out the new game, Robots Rumble.  (Yes, there is a version for the C64, too.)  :)
