Next Meeting coming up on Monday Jan 25th 2016

We are kicking the start of 2016 off with a new initiative: an Amiga and Retro Computing event!

The next meeting is coming soon, on Monday 25th January, 2016, starting at 7:30pm.



Two presentations will take place during the evening.

Introducing AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition - Epsilon

Epsilon will present this topic, discussing the features and functionality of this new operating system including where to obtain hardware, forum web-resources and software.


 
MITS Altair 8800 + Original Microsoft BASIC Demonstration


Theo Karagiris, a software developer based in South Australia, is one of the few owners of an original 1974 Altair 8800 system. He will bring this rare system along to the event to demonstrate its operation. This will will include a demo of the original Microsoft BASIC: first software program ever written by Microsoft.



There is a small cover charge of $3 to attend the event to cover the costs of room hire and other expenses for the event.

More information about the meeting is available on the Next Meeting section of this very website!

We hope to see many of you there - should be a great night!

As a reminder you can also follow us on Facebook, where we respond to questions and provide other Amiga information too:

Adelaide Amiga 30 Meeting coming up

Just a quick reminder that the next meeting is coming soon, on Monday 25th May, 2015.

More information about the Adelaide Amiga 30 meeting is available on the Next Meeting section of this very website!

We aim to bring as many different Classic Amiga and Next Generation Amiga systems as possible to this event to celebrate the Amiga's 30th birthday!


Above is an Amiga 1000 with Gotek Virtual Floppy drive (uses USB stick with virtual Amiga ADF Floppies). This can also boot the Kickstart from the USB stick too.


As an additional taster, shown above is the Next Generation Amiga Sam460CR (Left) running AmigaOS 4.1 Final Edition, and an Apple Powerbook G4 running MorphOS 3.7. Both systems are shown running the upcoming Wings Battlefield game by Cherry Darling - which can have up to 4 players on each system and can also play against each other in multiplayer LAN games!

We hope to see as many of you there as possible, it should be a great event!
