disks of the CIVIC 64/128 club of Ventura, California and the Diablo Valley
Commodore User Group of Walnut Creek, California.  Not this time!  Because
it is the 20th anniversary of 
Wheels 64/128, the compatible OS for GEOS, we'll watch an on-line video of
it in operation.  For the VIC-20, we'll run the new game, Pyrotech, and the
new demo/game, Dr. Ultra + Snake.  For the Plus/4, we'll have the disk
magazine, Lone News 21.  For the 
C128, we'll try out Manic Miner 128.

Jason Micari of Australia.  Then we'll try out the hit of the Sunday Maker
Faire, the Tech Sketch Music Port, software and a large keyboard that
connects to the user port of the C64,
 advertised as a "music synthesizer and multi-track recording
system".  The Amiga 2000 returns with its 68040 board {at} 28 MHz, DKB
MegAChip for 2 meg Chip RAM, 40 megs Fast RAM, Video Toaster, OS 3.1, and
dual disk drives, this time upgraded with the 
latest WHDLoad and more games, courtesy of the installation work of Duncan
MacDougall of The Other Group of Amigoids.

As it's a 3D weekend, we should all play 3D C64 games to celebrate :-) Oh,
and it's Towel Day on Friday as well.
