Happy Super Bowl Day, C= and Ami aficionados!

The Fresno Commodore User Group has its next meeting from 11 a.m. to 2:30+ p.m., Sunday, Feb. 18, at

For discussion, we'll talk about the Vintage Computer Festival SoCal, April 6 Los Angeles Maker Faire, the April 13-14 Commodore Los Angeles Super Show, and even various clubs in Australia – the Melbourne Amiga User Group, the Sydney Amiga User Group, and Amiga Retro Brisbane. We’ll also distribute the latest Interface newsletter and the latest Amiga Future magazine.

Like the last meeting, we’ll catch up with the goodies we couldn’t get to previously, like ChiCLI, which gives a command line interface for the C64, and TeensyROM, a C64/128 utility cartridge that has a ROM emulator, fast loader, MIDI, and Ethernet connections. We’ll also try out a classic C64 music program, Dancing Feats from Softsync, Inc.. Watch out for the touchy joystick control! The changes are coming quickly to TRIANGULAR microOS for the C128, and so, we’ll try out the new v1.44, and just for comparision, we’ll run TRIANGULAR microOS for the C64. For the VIC-20, we run the new Vic Toybox. THEA500 Mini returns, this time with USB keyboard and running the newly-released Aminimiga v212.

Our meeting will not go on as long as usual (which is always overtime!), because Bernardo Studios opens right after the meeting. Yup, we’ll be filming a presentation or two for the Commodore Los Angeles Super Show. :)

Truly,
Robert Bernardo
