Events   Events : ACGGbg Easter Party
   posted by shoe on 13-Apr-2006 9:09:03 (2853 reads)
Tomorrow at 1300 hours we open the doors for ACG Gothenburg's second Amiga Easter Party. It's actually just a small local gathering of Amiga fans on the west coast but this year we'll have a few surprises. Like already mentioned in the forums we will show Quake3 running on OS4 and our very own TechMage Ole-Egil Hvitmyren will hold a seminar about PCB design and AVR programming. He will also bring his PCI Express graphics card for a demo on A1/OS4.

Read more about the details in Swedish on safir.amigaos.se.






===============
A bit short notice here on AW but I still wanted to make a news item about this since the party will feature some cool previous unseen stuff for AmigaONE / OS4. And of course anyone can just drop by to say hi and have a piece of Ole-Egils famous home made pizza. We will also show a few movies and demos on the Big Screen. On saturday we will also have a HUGE Blazing Easter Bonfire. And with a little luck with the timing we will have genuine easter chicks this year too.

A webcam will be available from safir and some blogs about the party will probably pop up late on friday. Pictures from last years event is available here.

@The_Editor, I think he's using an X300 or something.

If I get the time I'll see if I can make a short demo-video of the party. There will probably be lots of pix on safir later. Someone will probaby write or translate something for you guys

@tomazkid,

hehe, maybe you can do a voice over for the film? But I'd rather have Arnold Schwarzenegger. It'll be like "Get down! Get down! We gotta get out of hearrre! The A1 is about to blow!"

Just thought I'd mention that we had perfect timing with the chick's :)
And here's a (bad) screenshot of Quake3 in OS4. With permission I'll include a sequence of it in the party movie I'm making.

Hehe, yeah Ole-Egil is making pizza. And we just made some quite amazing progress with the PCIe reiser card in OS4, but I'm not sure we're allowed to discuss it outside the beta-list yet.
