[SIGCIS-Members] Amiga 30th Anniversary Event - History from Below

[Dag Spicer]

Hello friends,

If any of you are exploring microcomputers, computer graphics or the rise of personal computing in your work and would like see a unique world-class collation of (mostly functioning) Amiga and other microcomputers, please consider attending this upcoming CHM event.  Former Amiga, Apple, and Atari employees in attendance make this a great ‘guerrilla oral history’ opportunity too!
