I've had a loss of email addresses and information over the last year
or so... can anyone help me out in getting some questions (to be drawn
up) into Jay's hands so he can provide some first-hand information
about the period 1980-1984 for possible use in an article that looks
likely to get commissioned in the near future? Fingers crossed on both
fronts there...

Anyone who can assist or even Jay himself can contact me at
mayhemers@[remove for spam]hotmail.com .

I know that none of us (that's myself, Jon and Steve) own one, and we
are planning to run a couple of Vectrex machines at the show. If you
don't mind bringing one along for use, be me guest Smile

What games use it at the moment? Debris, Colorclash, Spike's Circus,
YASI... the altered Verzerk... what others? Smile

Doh... I can't read of course. An AtariVox... well I own the first
version sold by AtariAge, the one without the casing. We will be
running a 7800 with the Cuttlecart 2, I assume the AtariVox works okay
with that (I must admit I've not tried it)?

Hadn't planned on bringing it... are you thinking of bringing something
new to Eurocon that needs it then? Wink

....on an unrelated note - do you know if an AtariVox will be present at
Eurocon 2006 ?

Well I'll be bringing some separate portable speakers anyhow for use
with my laptop (being used for presentations and the quiz) so I'll see
about connecting them to the AtariVox and running MGD perhaps.

Yes


>are you thinking of bringing something new to Eurocon that needs it then?

No, I can't make it to the show, I'm just still trying to push the AVox.

If you do decide to demo it, could you direct enquiries to AtariAge (who'll
be selling it again shortly).



Thanks...
