I'd like to meet all of you guys one day but Toronto is a bit far for a casual get together. Have fun.

You can have 1st dibs on the guest room and anyone else can have the air mattress or baby's crib :D

I'm definitely interested. This Saturday (27th) is no good for me, but the 28th, Feb 3 or 4th are all fine.

I'd prefer an afternoon/early evening thing, can't do the late nights as easily any more.

Barrie is a bit of a drive from Toronto but this sounds like fun and it would be a great chance to meet a few more of you guys so I would be interested in attending. Perhaps a carpool might be in order for people coming from Toronto?
In the end it will be as if nothing ever happened.

I'm sure Leif in his "Schemamobile" will pick up hitchhikers with a Commodore product under their arms :D

Barrie isn't far...it takes me the same time to get to work (I work in Vaughan) as others who live in Toronto to get to work :shock:

So we got 3 from the board great (including Sparky who PM'd me) !!

6502dude can't make it :(

How about BBell (Brad) a bit further west but still quite feasible (I'm going to a pinball show in March in Rochester NY for the day and went last year too....for the hobby it's worth it) 8)

I might be in too - I'd have to check with the wife of course. (Don't laugh - those that have wives know. haha) I don't know as many on this forum, but I do know Leif and Golan.

That would be great Ian (maybe everyone can car pool together).

I'm thinking next weekend now as this one is approaching fast (just have to decide between a Sat or Sun)..... :? :? :? :?

I'm also working on some prizes and will post a pic of the grand prize when I figure out the details.... Vic-20 users and collectors will be :shock: :shock:

ditto-mania. I'm starting to wish I could. If only I were a rich man, I could just fly out to these things whenever.

Ok, took a pic of some of my "extras" that I'm going to give away as prizes.

Maybe some more yet to come and if anyone got anything to add feel free to bring it (let me know ahead of time so I can figure out what types of activities the prizes will be awarded for) :D

Anyone want to put on a demo of some sort or "show and tell" something of a electronic nature let me know too so I can fit it into the schedule....Leif you got anything in the Mad Scientist Lab brewing :D
