Fitting into a tower case

Yes, it all fits.

Must add more components

Another AmigaOne

And another

You guessed it... another AmigaOne.

Hey, what's that Mac Mini in the corner!

On Oct. 8 I visited the Amiga North Thames meeting in Enfield (north London).  Though I arrived an hour early, I had to leave early, too.  I could've stayed another hour or two.  Thanks to Chris F. who befriended me there and gave me a ride back to the train station.

The front panel

Yup, there's a Raspberry Pi in there.

Sweet mini-arcade box!

Now this A1200 has serious sound!

Oh, this CD32 still uses the epoxied power brick.

Yes, put it on the big screen!

Too many Competition Pros on this A1200!

As usual, LAG has a great spread of snacks.

Now this AmigaOne is very glossy.

I was able to attend the October 7 LAG meeting in Lincoln, north England, after being away for 3 years.  I felt very much at home with the friendly members.  Their leader, Michael Domoney, was his usual hospitable self.  If only I could visit more often...

Before going to Sweden, I spent several days in West Sussex, meeting with my long-time friends.  After Sweden, I went to Prague, the Czech Republic, where I met with Commodorians.  After the Czech Republic, I was back in the United Kingdom, taking the train to visit AmigaKit in Cardiff, Wales.

My first visit to the club and not enough time there

I must return to the club another day!

From Sept. 24 to Sept. 27 I visited Stockholm, Sweden.  My first time in the city, I was happy to meet my friends Jonas, Dimitris, and David there.  We talked a lot about Commodore and Amiga, and going to the weekly Monday Club was a surprise!  The club is into retro game consoles and retro computers.
