Hi Geoff,
I have got no problems with the menu, except I do not like whiskey
these days...
I was looking at the proposed activities, do you have a programme of
events yet?
Will I be able to update/buy software of hardware.
Regards,
Derek
Thanks for the email, but tut, tut. Whiskey is Irish, but whisky
Scottish. John is going to ask if there will be a drinks list available
and also if we need to give/get advice about the various types of whisky.
As far as the program is concerned I am now at the stage when I am
twisting a few arms. What I am suggesting to people is that we keep the
presentations relatively short in the hope that we can then have a good
discussion with lots of ideas flying around.
I still intend to stick to the three main themes of hardware. software
and (electronic) communications. Another thing I would like to do is
profile some of the classical software that has been preserved or
re-released. I would be interested in hearing from a gamer who would
like to demonstrate either in a formal presentation or informally at a
table.
I have already opened a Skype account for the workshop, although I still
have to do final tests that my laptop can cope. As I am new to Skype I
may need someone to sit beside me and hold my hand (metaphorically, of
course). I hope to have at least one presentation via Skype.
There will be no traders present at the event, although, of course, the
German hardware developers will be there,
Best wishes,
Geoff
