Hey! Got the some Orlando DevCon stuff in the mail today! I'm planning on going….anyone else? Steve

Steve, Right now, it's on the wish list and waiting for a funding priority. I hope to be able to go, but am not certain yet. (My info came in the mail today as well.) David

BTW, for those who are tight on funds, the hotel where this DevCon is being held is not very far from other hotels with MUCH lower rates. (I've stayed at the Travelodge Orlando Flags which is about 3 blocks away, and it's only $29 a night for AAA members…) That can save quite a bit pricewise… –>Steve Bennett

There is a Quality Inn (haven't stayed there) about four blocks away, and it is in that same price range. And a Howard Johnson's across the street that is about half the Marriott price. —Betty

There's something like 20-30 different hotels/motels along that stretch of International Drive, in all price ranges. Shouldn't be difficult to find something to fit anyone's tastes/budget. I've stayed at several different places there over the years. –>Steve Bennett

I plan to be there, Steve. —Betty

Argh! I was planning on it. Now, I'm not so sure. I probably won't know 'till the end of December. -bill

Steve, I'm hoping to attend. Still gotta work out a few nits (like how the heck I'm gonna pay for it :-). – BobR (Motorola Inside!)

I had already scheduled vacation time for it from Work back when I first heard about it (July?). I'll definately be there. I'm not too sure of my schedule, though… I will likely drive down the weekend before, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to stay any time after. I'd like to stick around for the mass invasion of whatever attraction people decide to go to on Saturday, but I'm not certain whether I'll have the time. This makes *two* Florida trips I'll be making in 3 months. (The first one starts Halloween, and goes for 2 weeks…) Quite a lot of driving, but that's never bothered me. –>Steve Bennett

Steve; Where do you live? I'll also be making two trips within three months if I'm able to go to DEVCON. I unfortunately have a commitment to be available the week of Jan 25-29, so I won't know for sure until the end of December. -bill

I live in the Philly area. In my case, both trips are for "vacation" rather than business. (Yes, I consider the Amiga DevCon a vacation trip. It's always been a lot of fun… <g>) –>Steve Bennett

Steve; OK, that's a pretty substantial drive. I'm becomming more discouraged all the time at my chances of making it to DevCon. -bill

Steve: I'll be going for sure. Do you want a ride up? // -Mike Schiller \X/ AMIGA! On AutoPilot in sunny Fort Lauderdale
#29235From: Marlene Zenker/SYSOPOct 15, 1992 6:39 AM
Yeah, we might be able to do that! 🙂 I still have to arrange stuff with work, and I have to decide which day I want to go up. I'm also trying to decide whether I want my own car up there for that time. We'll talk about it again when DevCon time gets closer. Steve

I think that I will be going. My family should be joining me afterwords for a time at Mickey Mouse land… Fun, fun, fun.
#29673From: Mike ToddOct 27, 1992 12:18 AM
I'll be there too … there should be a reasonable-size contingent from the UK I think.
