Happy Thanksgiving, C= and Ami aficionados!   
        The Fresno Commodore User Group has its next meeting from 11 a.m. to   
   2:00+ p.m., Sunday, November 18 at  --   
      
     Bobby Salazar's Mexican Restaurant   
     2839 North Blackstone Ave. (corner of Blackstone and Michigan)   
     Fresno, California   
     (559) 227-1686   
      
   This month we'll talk about the Dec. 1 Downtown Los Angeles Maker Faire and   
   the new-to-us January 5-6 Retro City Festival in Pomona.  Our sister club, the   
   Southern California Commodore & Amiga Network, will be showing off Commodores   
   and Amigas at both    
   events. We'll also talk about the new GEOS Megapatch 3.3, PLATOterm, the 64   
   Mini incompatibilities, and the Ultimate 64 delays.  For your viewing   
   entertainment, we'll watch a few choice minutes from the banquet presentations   
   of the October Amiwest Show.   
        At the September meeting, we played around with the 3D Construction Kit   
   games, A Chance in Hell and the 3D Kit Game, though we didn't devote enough   
   time to the latter.  Well, Steven Flanagan has updated the 3D Kit Game so that   
   the upper corners of    
   the game are more visible (the former SuperCPU version of it had the corners   
   obscured).  So, we will try out this new version with the SCPU... but Steven   
   warns us that the game is much harder that A Chance in Hell.  :)   
        On the rest of the software front, we'll have new/updated/compiled   
   programs: VIC-20 – Chinese Patience, Morse, Innuh's Pyramid; C64 – Shadow   
   Switcher, Great Giana Sisters 30th Anniversary, Scuttlebutt-Behind Enema   
   Lines, Knightlore, Tower of    
   Rubble 64, Hibernated 1-This Place Is Death, Limbo Preview; Plus/4 – Neon   
   Nights HFLI, Cross Chase, Zombie Calavera Prologue; Amiga CD32 – various   
   CD32 compilation discs.   
        If you have anything for Ray Carlsen to repair, give it to me, because   
   I'll soon be traveling up to his house in the Pacific NW.   
      
             Truly,

   P.S. Food for thought.  In our December meeting, we always donate money from   
   our treasury to a charitable cause.  For the last several years, it has been   
   to the St. Jude Children's Hospital.  However, this year with the disastrous   
   fires in California, we    
   should think about donating to help those affected by the fires.
