Jon Peterson has brought us this exclusive pictured report from the Amiga 2000 Show in St. Louis:

1) AmigaActive magazine. Group from UK with outstanding publication. Comes with cover CD each month. This month features the full version of Scala 1.2. Very well done publication for the Amiga. Representing the company were Mark Hinton.

2) Amiga concept design for a tower config. This model shown at the banquet.

3) Another concept design for a desktop model. Just throwing out some ideas..

4) Some of the BoXeR cases being displayed at the show. BoXeR received some very good "promises" of support from AI at the show. Let's hope to see it out...........soon!

5) CompuQuick booth at the show. The largest booth with hundreds and hundreds of CDs as well as just about anything you are looking for in Amiga hardware. Give them a call.

6) Bill McEwen makes the opening speech at the Developer's Conference.

7) Fleecy Moss takes the microphone for the full commitment to a crowded developer's room.

8) Individual Computers from Aachen, Germany that produces the Buddha products represented by Jens Schönfeld and Sarah Wittermann with the SoftwareHut folks. Some outstanding hardware products made available for the Amiga. Take a look at their ethernet boards with IDE controller(s) onboard. Amazing!

One more thing I just remembered. I was talking to Paul Brestyanszky of AntiGravity at his booth in A2K show. They have purchased the Boxer board and technology effective now. He also received a very good promise of support from Bill McEwen during the show. He mentioned that he had made some good connections during the show to locate hardware for completion of the board which will enable them to (hopefully) get it completed quickly (this year?).
