Re: The Cambridge Dragon Meetup - June 3rd
Bring it along - I'll take mine apart - its the putting it back together again thats the worst bit - aligning the drive fronts with the LEDs and eject buttons is whole new type of challenge

Ok, Thank you very much!
I think the Archive is the leading edge now when it comes to information on Dragon computers, and this will be another huge step forward.
Beta boards anyone?

Hi guys!
I just booked my flight!
I'll arrive at Stansted on Friday at 15:05 and will be leaving from there on Saturday at 19:55.
Sorry I couldn't stay longer, but leaving on Sunday was much more expensive.
See you soon!

Wooohooo!!
It's going to be a great day!
Before I forget, does anyone have an european to uk mains adapter? So I can connect the scanner...

Re: The Cambridge Dragon Meetup - June 3rd
I've got 25 different Dragon specific books I can bring. That should help pass the time while queued up for a look at the Alphas/Beta
Speaking of which, I'll try and borrow an anti-static mat & wrist strap if it's not already covered. It should help keep things a bit safer for dismantling prototype(s). It's fun to imagine what they would be worth if there was a picture of an Apple on them instead of a Dragon!
Also found an issue of the Siegfrieds Drachenpost newsletter while digging around. I'll scan it in when I get some time.
I'm in two minds about bringing a Dragon setup. It mainly comes down to laying my hands on a small TV I can lug around or a composite/vga converter that works. (Never tried one but I've heard of examples of them not working or have noticeable time lag)

On the question of monitors ... last time I was at the Museum I did note they had piles and piles of them everywhere. I'm going to drop them a line and see if we can borrow some, rather than have to lug our own.
Looking forward to seeing you all in June!

Re: The Cambridge Dragon Meetup - June 3rd
The Museum said they'll be happy to supply monitors - good! Of course, I only have one video cable, because I normally only use one Dragon a time ...
Re: The Cambridge Dragon Meetup - June 3rd
Dragon event, what a great idea.
I would like to come and meet everyone and possibly get a first hand look at the machines that may be present, but I am otherwise engaged at the beginning of June otherwise I would definitely be attending.
So I hope your day goes well and that you all get a parking space.
