March 2018 Event

Adelaide Retro Computing Event!
Time: 7:30pm
Date: Friday 9th March 2018
Location: Eastwood Community Centre Hall
95 Glen Osmond Road, Eastwood SA 5063 

Cost of entry is $4 per person. (Children under 12 exempt)

Any retro computer or gaming system is fine: Apple, IBM, Commodore, Amiga, Atari, Sega, Nintendo, Wonderswan, FM Towns, BeBox, NEXT; we want to see them all. We'd especially like to see stuff we haven't seen before, so no matter how obscure it is, we want to see it.

If you don't have anything to bring in that's fine; we'd like to see as many people attend to spectate as those with displays.

We request that systems be dated 2001 or earlier.

Second hand sale tables for those wanting to sell retro systems and retro system accessories should be available as usual.

The event starts at 7:30pm, but for those bringing in systems please arrive at 7:00pm to set up. Please bring power boards and extension cables for your equipment. A video projector will be available for anyone wanting to use it with their system. Tables are provided.

There is a $4 entry fee to cover costs of room hire, etc.

For directions to the Eastwood Community Centre please visit our website at http://adelaideretrocomputing.blogspot.com.au/ and click on Meeting Location for directions.

We look forward to seeing you all there!

February 2018 Meeting Report

Thanks to everyone who braved the heat and came out Friday night. It was great to see you all. There were some unique and varied systems on display.

Our next meeting will be March 9.

We know that many people who would like to attend events are unable to do so Friday nights. In response to this, Nick is conducting a poll over on our Facebook page to gauge interest on a change to Saturday nights. Whether you’d like to see a change or are happy with the status quo, please share your thoughts.
