Those of us close to AmiWest are always excited about what will happen at the show. But why should you come to join us? We believe there are compelling reasons to be here in person at AmiWest 2012. So we are going to make the case for your personal attendance and, hopefully, your persuasion of at least one other person to attend with you.
Here's a countdown of our most compelling reasons to attend, from #10 down to #1. Join us now as we countdown to AmiWest 2012, October (18)19-21, 2012, at the Ramada Plaza Cal Expo, 2600 Auburn Blvd., in Sacramento, CA.
REASON # 3: COME TO AMIWEST 2012 TO ENABLE YOUR AMIGA!
Our theme this year is enable:Amiga! We are dedicating the show to enabling your Amiga to perform as it never has before. To this end we are presenting two demonstrations of Amiga software on AmigaOS4.x on Saturday and on Sunday.
On Saturday, a demonstration will be presented using Getting the Most From Your Amiga, a freeware compilation by Daniel Hutchinson. We will address some of the lesser-known aspects of this compilation and have the compilation itself available as a giveaway. Downloading and providing this collection has proven to be a significant piece of work and, we believe, will repay your effort in attending AmiWest. Using the freeware in this collection will enable access to iTunes from your desktop, allow you to manage assigns without editing your startup sequence, program keys on your multimedia keyboard, and other functions designed to truly enable your Amiga. Many thanks to Daniel for providing this landmark collection of what he has found useful for AmigaOS.
On Sunday, IntuitionBase, ably represented by Eldee Stephens, will present a second enable:Amiga demo using his Amiga as a base for the demo. We're not sure about all the details of this presentation, but we know that it will be a good reason to come on to the show on Sunday. Come in person and find out what it's all about!
