Equipment needs for CommVEx v3

[rbernardo]

Looks as if I will have to fill Dick Estel's car and my car with all the equipment we need for CommVEx. Here is the list of the set-ups we'll be bringing:

Amiga CD32 + SX32
Amiga A500 or A600
SX-64
one PAL DTV, one NTSC DTV, one Hummer DTV
VIC-20
PET 4032

All (except the DTVs) will come with software so that attendees can use/play with them to their hearts' content.

If you have any specific equipment requirements, let us know,

If you have any specific equipment requirements, let us know...

We do not have a big-screen television monitor or any video projector with which to use for our presentations this year. If you can bring such a device to the show, we'd be very grateful.

How can I forget...? There will be three C128DCR set-ups, too.

Not including the West German PAL C64,
the British PAL C64, and the plastic C128D
for exhibit,

I'll also have my C128DCR setup for BBS'ing... So I guess there will be four there.

And with the one in the raffle, that will make five!

Larry Anderson may have solved the need for a big-screen t.v.. He wants to buy a 26-32" LCD t.v. in Las Vegas.

Hey, no California recycling tax!

To the probable delight of Andrew W., I will be bringing the recently unearthed Lt. Kernal hard drive.

FCUG storage is deep,

Here is the list of the set-ups we'll be bringing:

Amiga CD32 + SX32

O.K., I put the CD32 in a safe place, but it's so safe, that I don't remember where it is! I've looked high and low, and I have the SX32 and the CDs for the machine. Trouble is where is the machine?

Ah, well, if I don't find it, then more room in the car!

O.K., I put the CD32 in a safe place, but it's so safe, that I don't remember where it is!

Searched the house a fourth time. Still no CD32. In its place, I'll be bringing an Amiga 1200.

It looks as if we are picking up the t.v. today -- an Olevia 32" t.v. with all kinds of inputs including P.C.! It's highly rated by Consumer Reports, and it's only $550 (not including tax) from Circuit City.

The Olevia HDTV worked well; the image was clear and rock-steady. If only it were PAL-compatible, too...

Because our car was packed, we had to leave the Olevia behind, but it is being well-taken care of by 5C's president, Al Jackson. When I'm back in Las Vegas in 2 weekends, I'll pick it up from Al and bring it back to California.

Andrew checked out the Lt. Kernal on Saturday. A connecting cable had been hacked and thus wouldn't work on the only C64 we had at the show, Lenard Roach's. (However, we had scads of C128D's. ) After further examination, Andrew reported to me on Monday that the original, 5 1/4", 20-meg mechanism was toast. He will put in a better connecting cable and another mech in order to get the Lt. Kernal running. Then he wants to come to a future FCUG meeting and do a presentation on it!

The Olevia is now safe and sound with Larry who picked it up from me on the 18th.
