It seems like only yesterday I arrived back in New Zealand after a very enjoyable trip to California to attend the 21st AmiWest show in Sacramento. But with the summer in full swing down under and Christmas almost upon us I can’t believe 2018 has flashed by so quickly. My trip to AmiWest always brings… Continue reading I really can’t say anything bad about that……..

I’m sitting in Wellington airport, waiting for my first flight to carry me to San Francisco for my now annual pilgrimage to attend AmiWest in Sacramento. First of all I must apologise for the scarcity of news from me over the past few months. I actually started this blog in late July when the Northern… Continue reading Planes, Trains and Automobiles – minus the trains

I can’t believe it’s already March, just where has the time gone? I suppose a trip to Athlone to attend the Amiga Ireland 2018 Meetup in mid January helped to soak up some of the time. 😉 Once again, Jarlath and his crew made us feel very welcome, although the stories of drinking horse’s milk took… Continue reading We are Amiga!

What a year it has been! I can’t believe it has passed so quickly. Having just returned from attending the Premiere of the Commodore Story documentary in London I’ve just booked my flights to attend the Amiga Ireland 2018 Event in January. It’s a hard life being an Amigan but as the saying goes, “someones… Continue reading What a story!

I’m not talking about two back-to-back baseball games but the upcoming AmiWest 2017 and Amiga32 shows which I will be attending this month in Sacramento, California and Neuss, Germany. I’m pleased to say that, once again A-EON Technology is a major sponsor of both Amiga shows. I leave the shores of New Zealand on Wednesday evening… Continue reading A Doubleheader

Well AmiParty 21 in Poland lived up to all my expectations and then some. 🙂 The hospitality and warmth shown by Jeanot and the rest of the Chelm Amiga Legion team to David Pleasance, Amiga Bill and me was second to none. The strong Polish beer and aromatic home made vodka, known as Stalin’s Tears,… Continue reading Stalin’s Tears

First of all apologies for the relative silence. I started writing this update in late April while I was sitting in an airport lounge waiting for a flight to take me to another Amiga show. To be exact, the VCF SE 5.0 in Roswell, Georgia which is not only an Amiga show but celebrates the… Continue reading To be this good?

Recently I attended an informal talk by Dutch futurist Yuri Van Geest, the co-author of Exponential Organizations and Dutch Ambassador of the Singularity University. He talked about the disruptive impact that emerging technology and innovation would have on businesses and future job prospects. He claimed the key technological drivers of the “fourth industrial revolution”, quantum… Continue reading Quantum Leap

It’s already mid February and so much is happening in our Amiga world. I’ve just returned from a whistle-stop Amiga focused business trip to London, Cardiff, Brussels and Dublin. While I was in Belgium, thanks to Timothy de Groote the Managing Director of Hyperion Entertainment, I saw the Tabor board booting a beta version of… Continue reading Metamorphosis
