LAG 10 postponed for a while

we are currently in the process of finding a new venue for LAG meetings, so as such this month's proposed LAG 10 meeting has been postponed temporarily. I'll post the date for the meeting as soon as I know what it is. Our current plan is to have it in a months time, but don't quote me on that ;)

LAG 7 Date Confirmed

LAG 7 will take place at the usual venue, Lincs Chamber of Commerce, Outer Circle Road, Lincoln, on September 15th (Sorry! I got that a bit wrong!!) 2007. Due to key member commitments we are unable to hold it in October as planned, so we're having it early.

The next meeting after this one ( LAG 8 ) will likely be at the usual time of early December.

LAG 6 Reminder

Just a reminder to everyone that the next LAG meeting is THIS SATURDAY (11th August) at our usual venue, Lincoln Chamber of Commerce, Outer Circle Road, Lincoln.

On display this meeting will be the usual array of Classic and AmigaONE hardware, along with MacMiga and gaz_god's EFIKA projects (which will hopefully both be completed and running by then!).
We will also, circumstances permitting, be doing a rebuild of a Eyetech EZTower-Z4 Amiga 1200, which is undergoing a mainboard swap.

As usual, all are welcome to join us.

LAG 6 date confirmed

Sorry for the late announcement, but we've had to do a bit of re-planning. LAG 6 will take place at the usual venue, Lincs Chamber of Commerce, Outer Circle Road, Lincoln, on August 11th 2007. Please nothe this is the *second* Saturday in August, not the first, as MacMiga is away over the first weekend.

EFIKA at LAG 5

MacMiga will be bringing along his new EFIKA board to LAG 5 and will (if i can get Linux to install) hopefully give a demo of the EFIKA in action. He will also be fielding questions etc. about the board and it's features.

UPDATE: I can confirm this will be a goer as I have just got it up and running with Debian Linux. Thanks to the guys at Genesi and bplan for their speedy work fixing the Debian install Kernel for EFIKA!

LAG 3 – What’s On? (Updated)

Just to let you in on what may (or may not!!) be happening at LAG 3 so you have something o look forward to, here's a rundown of some stuff expected to be at the show (subject to change without notice - we're only human):

MacMiga's Amiga1500 - Currently in a bit of a state worse than China, but getting better, I've been having mysterious disk and RAM problems. Robert17 and I will have it apart all over the table at LAG 3 trying to diagnose it. Robert17 also wants to test his GVP 2060 (yes a 68060 for the Amiga 2000 - neat huh!) in the machine as he is having motherboard compatibility issues with it on his older Rev 4.x board.

MacMiga's Ultra600 Project - Amiga 600 meets Mac, this is proof that the A600 can be made into a serious desktop Amiga! More HERE.

Robert17's AmigaONE XE G4 - Currently I have this on loan, but I'll be handing it back to Robert at the meeting. It'll be fired up and on show for all to see running the Final Release version of Amiga OS 4.0.

rockape's uA1 G3 - Hopefully, with luck and a following wind, MacMiga may be performing an OS4 Final upgrade for all to see (having practiced in controlled conditions on Rob's A1XE).

gaz_god's Pegasos(s?) - Gaz will have his Pegasos with MorphOS running at the meeting, as ever. The Peg's presence at LAG 2 was notable by the fact Gaz spent half them meeting playing Duke Nukem 3d :) . Gaz has informed me he hopes to run a demo of the prerelease version of Sputnik, the CSS enabled web browser for MorphOS.
