Retro meets
Re: Retro meets
Neat. It thins out a lot oop north, and most of them are shops, but that's still useful. I hadn't heard of the North West Computer Museum before. If the place itself is half as cool as the website it'll be worth a visit (and I don't know if that's the case because the website doesn't give much away!).

Haven't got round to checking out Four Quarters yet (in BRISTOL!!, though I think it may be a chain?).
It's not far from me though.

This shows me a retro museum in Athens Greece. I'll be in Athens during Easter vacation and I'll try to visit it .Nitrowing wrote: ↑Wed Feb 22, 2023 12:00 am This popped up in my feed

To show where meets are planned
An exhibition that I liked was this in Thessaloniki (Greece) : https://www.noesis.edu.gr/en/connected-exhibition/
It will remain open until 30/6/2023.

The website is a triumph. I'm making a note here, huge success.R-Tape wrote: ↑Wed Feb 22, 2023 8:41 am Neat. It thins out a lot oop north, and most of them are shops, but that's still useful.

There's some photos on TripAdvisor for an enjoyable game of spot the micro.

Re: Retro meets
Lovely map. Am I the only one unfamiliar with the noun "meet"?

Re: Retro meets
It's short for "meatspace"
Re: Retro meets
the physical world, as opposed to cyberspace or a virtual environment:
"I'd like to know a little more before we talk about a get-together in meatspace"
Via Google
Regarding meet, you need to be more down with the kids....

OK, please ignore me, thus stuff is over my head. I'm too old to know anything about modern technology, but too nerdy to know anything about sports

Re: Retro meets
Isn’t it a further contraction of “meet-up”?
(From “set a meeting up”)

Step up to red alert. Sir, are you absolutely sure? It does mean changing the bulb
Looking forward to summer later in the year.

Now that's a neat resource!
Pleased to see that my lot - the Greenford Computer Club - are up there.
