Default Amigas at the Vintage Computer Festival East?

Hey...The Vintage Computer Festival East 8.0 (http://vintage.org/2012/east/) is May 5th and 6th in Wall, NJ USA. We could use an Amiga exhibit...anyone interested contact me and I will help you with details.

Are there any East coast USA Amiga events? I live near West Chester, PA you'd think someone around here would be running a club or something.

Bill

@billdeg

The Upstate New York Amiga Users Group appears to still be active:

They were supposed to have had a meeting on January 14th.

We did meet, and had a better turnout then was expected. Pictures will be posted as soon as I have some time to edit them. Also a video here and there too.

Bill, I'll pass this along to the club, but most if not all of them read these forums. But I'll pass it along to get any stragglers.

i can bring my SAM down for demos on sunday -- but i don't know if VCF is interested in just classic amigas or also amiga NG. i'll be there that sunday regardless, though.

I'm traveling very light, but I can pack ArcadeRetroGaming.com's Multiple Classic Computer 216 (MCC-216) with its Amiga, C64, and Atari 2600 cores. I would just need a VGA monitor from you guys.

Default Re: Amigas at the Vintage Computer Festival East?

I have recently renewed my interested in the C= Amiga and 8-bit hardware and would love to take a trip down to a show if I knew there would be cool stuff for me to see and talk about.

Anyone know if Amiga and C= 8-bits will be well represented at this show? Anyone running an Amiga or C= 8-bit booth?

Will I be able to see things like FPGA solutions, UIEC, etc...??

I'd hate to drive all that way and see all mainframes and punch cards which don't really interest me.

Thanks!!!
