Come and have a laugh this Sunday! (UK)

If you live in the UK, and are anywhere near London this coming Sunday, (13 May) please wonder over to the Anything But Windows (Formally Amiga North Thames) usergroup meeting.

For there you will gasp! marvel and possibly laugh out loud as I, Mikey C attempt to install X11 and several X11 compatible applications on my OS4 & MicroA1 Combo.
- This could end in tears!

Also, see UBantu Linux being put through its paces, plus Amiga emulation, Tea, Coffee, Pringles and maybe just maybe, some cake too!

What more do you want?

for details, please see our old, Amiga North Thames website, which will soon be replaced with a shiny new Anything But Windows website.

Doors open from 13:00.

That's correct, everyone has or uses windows, we are going for the lesser evils

What's the point in having a windows usergroup?

I like 3.9..... I think it's way nicer and easier than some crap that a Redmond company released earlier this year.

Can I come now? :look :P

You can all come, have a look, no charge, but we would appreciate a little donation to club coffers.

Entrance is free to first timers.
- Normal admittance to members is £4.50 (I know, shocking amount) 12 times a year.

And yes, you can all have a go on Amiga OS4 if you want.
