I'll try asking someone, like CBM engineer Bil Herd.

Truly,

Everything I've read / listened too / watched mentions the C64 being manufactured in the States, but not in Canada. Was there a Commodore assembly shop on this side of the border, or was this just a marketing thing (if a certain amount of the production budget - like packaging and shipping - was sp...

This year in addition to all of that, perhaps a Commodore/Amiga film festival with t.v. shows and films that featured Commodores and Amigas. For example, the Airwolf episode with the Commodores, the Terminator 3 movie with the PET, Police Story 1 with the SynCalc screen, and/or Star Trek II with th...

We were actually in Montgomery, Alabama, over the weekend of CommVEx, so not exactly "next door". I'm sure you all managed to have a good time without me, though... ;) Ah, some attendees were asking about you. By the way, we ran out of time to present your Lt. Kernal presentation (on vide...

Looks like [the Andy interview] will happen at 1 p.m. Pacific Time. The interview began almost exactly on time and went on for about 1 hour, 40 minutes. Questions came from those who had posted on the Net and from our audience of attendees. Everything was recorded to an .aiff file of over 1 gig in ...

That projector was well-used at CommVEx v4. Also put to good use was Yul Haasman's guitar amplifier plus microphone.

Boy, we needed Yul's equipment to fill the room

It was hard to get the wine distributed, but all 6 bottles finally were door-prized out. Dick Estel even got 2 of them.

Truly,

Well, Sunday was so busy that there was no time to get onto the chat. Sorry about that.

Going and going from 8:30 a.m to 5:30 p.m,

Our club treasurer will have to keep track of which is which in the raffle. He is very organized and has what ticket will go for which prize. Speaking of prizes, more door prizes and small raffle prizes came. I forget which... because it is late and I'm not in the conference room to see what they a...

I asked if we were allowed to start packing the conference room early on Friday afternoon (as has been our tradition). With the new management in place, she will have to ask her boss, but she herself sees no problem with the request. I started packing the room at around 2:30 p.m.. About 4 p.m. Dick...

It's been confirmed -- a conference call into CommVEx. For a small charge, the Plaza Hotel is providing us a hard-wired phone line into the room, an access number, and even a loud speakerphone. Well, the phone they have is no speakerphone. :-( Fortunately, 5C's member, Yul Haasman, will provide a s...
