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 completes it’s first EFIKA project
LAG Members, MacMiga and gaz-god have just completed work on the first of 2 EFIKA-based projects. The project is a small form-factor case for the miniature PowerPC-based board including a 4-port powered USB hub.
Full details are available HERE
The project has also been covered on the blog of Bill Buck & Raquel Velasco
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 5 Reminder!
Reminder to all members and/or LAG attendees that the fifth LAG meeting will be held on SATURDAY June 4th at the Lincs Chamber of Commerce, Outer Circle Road Lincoln. We will be starting around 11:30-12:00 hopefully.
LAG 5 Date Confirmed
LINCS AMIGA GROUP have confirmed (well as well as one can) that our next meeting will take place on June 2nd 2007.
We will be meeting at our usual venue at the Lincolnshire Chamber of Commerce, Outer Cirlce Road, Lincoln. The meeting will start at 12pm as per usual and will go on until 5pm-ish, with a meal afterwards for those who are able to stay.
LAG 4 Report – finally!
Yes, I have got around to it at last. What with dying of various ailments (colds, hayfever etc...), work (and its associated effects) and then shooting off to London for 5 days, I haven't had a chance to make up any decent excuses for not writing the reports!
Still, here we are. LAG 4 went really well, probably our best meeting yet computing-wise. We managed to get 4 Amigas online via the events wireless thanks to Gaz and Mark's efforts in wrangling with the network and Miami respectively.
We were able to take a quick look at the second beta of the Sputnik web browser for MorphOS (coming soon to OS 4?). It's definitely work in progress but it's getting there!
There were plenty of Amigas of all types, displaying the usual wide array of games, applications and utilities, including 3D rendering, Web Browsers and classic games of Amiga time, like Speedball 2 and Seek & Destroy.
We had a great day, and can't wait to do it all again at the next meeting... speaking of which the next meeting (LAG 5) is pencilled in for June 2nd 2007. Once again we are at the Chamber of Commerce, Outer Cirlce Road, Lincoln. All comers welcome.
LAG 4 Date finalised
Sorry, I've been slacking (some LAG members are not surprised apparently ;o) ) . We have however finalised the date for the fourth LAG meeting. LAG4 will be held at our usual venue (LINCS Chamber of Commerce, Outer Circle, Lincoln) on April 7th 2007.
LAG 3 Reminder!
Reminder to all members and/or LAG attendees that the third LAG meeting will be held on SATURDAY of this week at the Lincs Chamber of Commerce, Outer Circle Road Lincoln. We will be starting around 11:30-12:00 hopefully, weather permitting - looks cold and wet for the Lincoln area but not like snow as far as we can see.
