The event will take place on 24/25th of July 2004 at the Fairfield Entertainment Centre, Croydon. CGE UK is the brainchild of Chris Millard, retro gamer and hardcore hoarder of classic gaming collectables. Chris explained: “I originally wanted to put on a personal show simply to exhibit my own collection of hardware and software, but with the current growth and popularity of retro gaming, it soon spiralled into something much bigger.” Already, CGE UK has secured a number of exhibitors including the US toy giant JAKKS Pacific, the company behind the hugely popular Namco 5in1 Arcade Classics Console. Other attractions already in place include a personal appearance by the Oliver twins (developers of the classic Dizzy games) and an interactive workshop entitled ‘Learn how to build your own arcade cabinet’. Hopefully we’ll see you there. For the latest information in the run up to the show, please visit www.cgexpo-uk.com. This summer is once again shaping up to be a busy time for retro gamers. Two other key events include JagFest UK 2004 on the 12/13th June (www.uk.jagfest.org.uk) and RetroVision 2004 a week later on the 19/20th June (www.retrovision.org.uk).

  • Wakefield 2006 RISC OS Computer Show
    I would like to welcome you all to this, our eleventh annual show in Wakefield. There have been many ups and downs over the last eleven years, since the first show at Cedar Court, organised in thirteen weeks, which ended up taking over the entire hotel. Ever since then, we have been at our current venue of Thornes Park. Over the years we have had many interesting attractions and features, such as the guest appearance by Johnny Ball one year. Of course, the show has seen many new hardware and software launches and previews over the years, some more successful then others: Kinetic, Peanut, Phoebe, StrongARM, Vantage, RiScript and so on. In fact, this year it is ten full years since we saw the very first StrongARM at the first Wakefield Show, as well as being the 25th Anniversary of the BBC Micro! Even now, we still have people developing for this famous microcomputer, which helped to start the home computer revolution. Be sure to visit both the JGH BBC Software and Domesday System stands during your visit. The Domesday Project is another superb example of how advanced we were with the BBC Master and other Acorn products of the 1980s. Now we are looking to the future with the new A9home, which is expected to be on retail sale or available for ordering at the show. Over the years we have had visitors to the show from all over the world, from countries such as New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Belgium, Finland, Sweden and the USA; not bad for an amateur show! Another long-standing attraction of the show is of course the charity stall, which allows redundant equipment to be recycled, and through your kind support the stall has raised many thousands of pounds, primarily for the Wakefield Hospice, over the years.

  • Archimedes PC Emulator
    Archimedes PC Emulator PC emulators are not new, but so far they have had limited success in their job of enabling your chosen micro to run PC-compatible software. Simon Jones unveils Acorns PC Emulator package for the Archimedes range of micros to see how well it performs in action. At this years PCW Show, Acorn proudly displayed its PC Emulator package for the Archimedes range of computers, which is claimed to allow packages written for the IBM PC to run on an Archimedes. Acorn was demonstrating the Emulator running dBase III+ and Lotus 1-2-3 at the show and, as I only managed a quick glance at the Emulator then, I was pleased to get the opportunity to examine the product at close quarters. Having seen other attempts at PC compatibility, such as pc-ditto (reviewed in PCW, October) I was sceptical to say the least. The Archimedes carries on the Acorn tradition, having a lot in common with the BBC Micro and the BBC Master series. Indeed, the Archimedes will run most of the well-behaved software written for the BBC computers. However, the Archimedes and the BBC micros differ radically in the CPU they use and the amount of RAM available. Based on Acorns RISC processor, the Archimedes 440 is blindingly fast and, with 4Mbytes of memory, it is not short functions to those in MS-DOS. This is cellaneous keys between the main of space — a problem which caused the more than a little confusing if you are group and the numerics. The back- downfall of the BBC Micros.

    Offline Edition Version: Mar/22/2005 14:13 http://reviews.chemicalkungfu.de/ 1 Ah Catsmanga Daioh by taRo Review by BobBorakovitz Nov/03/2004 This is a really nice little game, very polished with excellent graphics and music! The text is in Japanese (or another similar foreign language) but it's easy to understand the menus. The gameplay is simple, you are a little anime girl on the bottom of the screen, your goal is to avoid the many cats that are falling from the sky while collecting tokens that also fall from the sky. For every cat that you avoid you get 1 point, and you get bonus points by collecting the tokens. I love the music, it's a catchy tune, but there's not too many sound effects, however the ones that are there work well and sound great without crackling. The feature in this game that really makes it stand out is the online ranking system! When your game ends you get a screen that has a password and a website to rank yourself among other players! At the time of this writing, my ranking is a dismal #144! Oh well, I'll keep trying!

  • Improving the Beaglebone Board with Embedded Ubuntu, Enhanced GPMC Driver and Python for Communication and Graphical Prototypes
    Final Master Thesis Improving the BeagleBone board with embedded Ubuntu, enhanced GPMC driver and Python for communication and graphical prototypes By RUBÉN GONZÁLEZ MUÑOZ Directed by MANUEL M. DOMINGUEZ PUMAR FINAL MASTER THESIS 30 ECTS, JULY 2015, ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING Abstract Abstract BeagleBone is a low price, small size Linux embedded microcomputer with a full set of I/O pins and processing power for real-time applications, also expandable with cape pluggable boards. The current work has been focused on improving the performance of this board. In this case, the BeagleBone comes with a pre-installed Angstrom OS and with a cape board using a particular software “overlay” and applications. Due to a lack of support, this pre-installed OS has been replaced by Ubuntu. As a consequence, the cape software and applications need to be adapted. Another necessity that emerges from the stated changes is to improve the communications through a GPMC interface. The depicted driver has been built for the new system as well as synchronous variants, also developed and tested. Finally, a set of applications in Python using the cape functionalities has been developed. Some extra graphical features have been included as example.

  • Oral History of Hermann Hauser; 2014-06-20
    Oral History of Hermann Hauser Interviewed by: Gardner Hendrie Recorded: June 20, 2014 Cambridge, United Kingdom CHM Reference number: X7214.2014 © 2014 Computer History Museum Oral History of Hermann Hauser Gardner Hendrie: Today we have with us Hermann Hauser, who has very graciously agreed to do an oral history for the Computer History Museum. Thank you very much, Hermann. I think I'd like to start with a little bit of your early family background, sort of have an understanding of where you came from, and it might give us some insight as to how you ended doing what you did. Hermann Hauser: OK sure. Well I was born in Vienna. My mother is Viennese, but my father is Tyrolean, so I actually grew up in the Tirol, although my father sent my mother back to Vienna to have me in the Rudolfinerhaus hospital in Vienna, but I grew up in the Tirol, which is the mountainous part of Austria where the skiing is, and we had a ski lift behind our house. I went to school in the local village. It was a tiny village that I grew up in with about 200 people or so. And with a very small local school, primary school. And then I went to Kufstein, which is about 15 kilometers from where I lived which actually was a very small part of Wörgl was called Bruckhäusl, which really was a little village that got attached to Wörgl. Hendrie: Excuse me, now did you have any brothers or sisters? Hauser: Yes. I have one brother who is five years younger than me.
