Well, to be honest, ... well ... *I* was one of them that ... kind of .. *hoped* a little ... perhaps(?!) ... tooo much! Aaarrrgh!
(I am just listening to "living on a deadline" by "dutch people" on m1live.com, and I would like to explain my ... erm, hopes ... in the the following frase: "living in a vacuum [and wanting/hoping that some interesting things will happen]")

Nice to hear. Nothing wrong in keeping secrets (for shorter times, hehe). After all, there is nothing wrong in supporting the show as a place to release news. There has to be something to premiere those who goes to the shows, IMHO.
I wish I could go to the show!
(From http://messe.think42.com/): "The main focus of the show will be on Amiga-related products. The biggest highlights will surely be the new mainboards "Amiga One" and "Pegasos". The title "Retro Computing" does not mean that this is a nostalgia meeting or even a fleamarket for old computers. Just the opposite. The exhibitors will show that the technologies of the homecomputers of the 80s are still improved today, and that they're still available as new products in the 21st century.
With AmigaOne and AmigaOS 4 on the one side, and Pegasos with MorphOS on the othe side, the Amiga - multimedia wonderbox of the late 80s - is ready for a comeback with high-performance PowerPC processors." |
