Happy National Chocolate Covered Anything Day, C= and Ami aficionados!
The Fresno Commodore User Group has its next meeting from 11 a.m. to 2:30+ p.m., Sunday, December 21, at
Panera Bread Restaurant 3590 W. Shaw Ave. (corner of W. Shaw Ave. and Marty Ave.) Fresno, CA 93711 (559) 271-0104 http://www.dickestel.com/meet_loc.htm
In club matters, we’ll be deciding which worthy charity will get our club donation, and we’ll be electing officers for 2026. In discussion we'll look at the newest issues of Compute's Gazette magazine, now with more Commodore and Amiga coverage than ever before!
For this Christmas meeting, we have an overabundance of software to go through! We may have to extend the software presentations into the January meeting! As consumers start receiving their Commodore 64 Ultimates this season, we’ll go over the list of games and other apps included with the machine. Since all the software is easily available, we’ll run several of them from the Ultimate 64. Most notable is GUI64, a desktop environment which comes with every C64U; we’ll be trying out v1.81, the older version of the C64U’s v1.95. https://www.c64-wiki.com/wiki/GUI64
Not only we will be going over C64U software but we will also look at the newest C64 game software from itch.com Plus three, new, productivity apps, Jas Word word processor, Whisper64 text editor, and the Kaleidoscope v4 screen editor.
Due to my travel schedule over the last few months, I’ve been lax in updating my Amiga computers. Well, not anymore! The AmigaOne A1222+ will be at the meeting, now with over three dozen, new and updated games/apps for OS 4.1 (like Polar Paint, Connect 4, AmiBrixx, 3D Converter...) and OS 1.3/3.1 (like Submarine Attack, Hyper Sports, Moon Patrol 500, Switcher Boy…). Too much! 
Merry Christmas! Robert Bernardo Fresno Commodore User Group - http://www.dickestel.com/fcug.htm Last edited by RobertB on 16-Dec-2025 at 10:38 AM.
