   Next FCUG meeting - Sunday, August 16

   Happy beginning of school, C= and Ami aficionados!   
        The Fresno Commodore User Group has its next meeting from 11 a.m. to 2+   
   p.m., Sunday, August 16 at --   
      
             Bobby Salazar's Mexican Restaurant   
             2839 North Blackstone Ave. (corner of Blackstone and Michigan)   
             Fresno, California   
             (559) 227-1686   
      
   This month we'll review this year's the Commodore Vegas Expo, including   
   watching some raw video footage from the show, and we'll discuss the bigger,   
   better, badder CommVEx for next year.   
        In our hardware and software presentations, we'll try out the new Mini   
   Commodore VIC-20 Ram Expander (32K), along with the new Boray Gammon game and   
   the new Pluto demo. For the Plus/4, we'll view the artsy pictures from   
   Botticelli Bilderdisk 40, and    
   if I can find the PAL Plus/4 (but not the Peter Hanson seriously-modded Pal   
   Plus/4), we'll install cooler-running, less power-hungry EPROMs for the old   
   Kernal, BASIC, and 3+1 ROMs. In Amiga, the CDTV returns with black CD-1253   
   mouse, CDTV keyboard,    
   floppy disk drive (but not the black CD-1411 disk drive which is somewhere in   
   storage), and a variety of games.   
      
             Back at work,   
             Robert Bernardo   
             Fresno Commodore User Group

   P.S. A rare Amiga cousin is being brought in, too. Prepare to take photos!
