Announcement:
CP/M Programming workshop

For the vintage computer enthusiasts, in conjunction with the MARCH Computer
Museum and the Delaware Hackerspace group, we like to invite you to a new
workshop this year involving vintage computers.

This new workshop is about CP/M programming and it will teach you how to
install, build and configure CP/M on your vintage S-100 computer system. All
the necessary steps are shown during the lecture and afterward is a hands-on
training session which will let you upgrade your S-100 computer with a floppy
disk based system and CP/M. Instruction and lecture will be provided by
Rich Cini of the Altair32 emulator project.

Please look at the link below about the workshop checklist for a detailed
list of requirements about this workshop. You'll need to know what to prepare
beforehand to get ready for this workshop. Ask any questions you have about
getting ready before the start of the workshop. A knowledge of assembly
programming, S-100 hardware, and CP/M operation is required for this workshop.
Please do not come unprepared.

We currently have seats for 12 workbenches for those who want the
hands-on training. An additional 10 seats are available for those who like
to watch and learn. If we happen to get more requests for this workshop,
we will try to accommodate as many people as possible. This is a first come,
first serve event, sorry, but we cannot accommodate latecomers.
Once the registration opens, please specify which seat you like to reserve.

The workshop is located very close to I-95 for those that are drivng. More
information can be found at the Delaware Hackerspace website below.

Looks like this thread has gone a little stale. Should it be unstuck?

I tried contacting Ragooman but his email server rejected me. I wanted to know if the materials for this would be available to people who could not make it to the workshop? I'd be willing to pay to cover costs, shipping etc..

Thanks,
Kipp
