I live near enough to Sacramento, CA (USA) and I'll be joining them after attending AmiWest 18.

I am one of the many returning to my roots, excited about the new hardware and technologies that have been emerging the last few years (thank you UK, DE, and Eastern Europe!). Much of my interest lies in classic hardware/680x0 restoration and repairs-quite a few skills acquired post-Amiga are now starting to pay off (SMD work, hobby electronics).
If you are in the radius of this community and have never previously attended, I am in the same boat-so don't be shy and make an appearance.
Chris.
