Cyber Legends...the preperation

[stephen_usher]

I don't know of any. Do we have any YouTubers coming along?

Well, I'm looking to bring a FHD security cam to link up to my laptop and record as much as I can from the corner. I can also bring a fairly ok digital camera.

However, that's about as high tech as I can go I'm afraid. I don't even have a SmartPhone, so the next level would be to get an Amiga/ST with a video capture card recording from a CCTV camera onto a CF/SD

If anyone wants to do better, then please be my guest.

It would be good to have it recorded for posterity.

On another note, I will be starting a new thread on Saturday to give snippets throughout the day of what happens (all going well), so that those who didn't make it can feel more like they actually did.

I'll be at my girlfriends on the weekend. But will try and keep a eye out for posts

Has anyone thought about taking a fire extinguisher ?

I have a go-pro clone (sj4000) that can do timelapse. In case we can rig it in a corner that could be a nice thing and some sort of security too.
I'll bring it anyway and see if we can use it.

I saw a tweet that Orion is performing a live install of his new CT63 v2022 on Saturday evening via Twitch.



Was thinking of putting it on a screen but actually we will probably be having too much fun and can watch the Twitch recording later...

Hey so have you found any documentation on the installation? I am 100% looking forward to watching your stream on this as my CT63 is arriving today.

I hope to be do some interviews with the exhibitors.

It might be a bit crude as I don't really have a suitable mic for interviewing and I'll be restricted to using the phone for the video, but hopefully we'll get some usable footage, even I have to voice it over later!

I'm busy preparing!!! Bringing quite a bit of random Atari stuff to sell on my table too. Also some SGI stuff.

[mrbombermillzy]

Phew! what a busy day!

So, MrsBomberMillzy had to go to Boscombe (astute readers of my 'Good deals had at the car boot sale' thread will remember the retro computing shop there that @rubber_jonnie has also visited and of course I just had to pay a visit).

After browsing through the C64, Spectrum, Amiga and Electron games, I got talking to the owner about the show tomorrow and he went to his back room and returned with a C-64C, which he then kindly donated to the show!

Here it is:

Apparently, it doesn't work, but it doesn't matter, it bolsters the C64 coverage on the show and who knows, with all these exhibitors itching to get the soldering iron out, it may yet live again!

Anyway, moving onwards, had to get back from there, drop the kids off at nan's, then it was the 'big haul'.

So this is about 90% of the gear I will be carting to the show (not including several hundred feet of leads! ):

After carting all this gear up and down the stairs, pulling heavy boxes out of the loft and lugging CRTs, I'm now done until tomorrow morning!
