Kapsa club makes every year international meeting called SAMCON. The last SAMCON was third. The first was made before one year and my opinion is it was very good SAMCON. There was avery very good mood and there was all SAM users like a one big family. The second SAMCON was made on the October. It was quite average. There was twice more people then on the first one. The last SAMCON was more commercial then the first ones. It was sponsored by some companys which distributates software in ourc ountry for Speccy and Didaktik (the czech clone of Speccy).It was a lot bigger then the first ones. There was a lot of Speccy fans. I liked it. Hope to see you everybody on the SAMCON IV, made from 29th till 1st May.

The KAPSA's hardware fans are interested in some informations about ic IM26C91 which you may see in RS232. I twill be very kind from you if you will send it to us. We read Mr. Gordon is preparing the new ASIC for SAM. That's pity we don't have any contact to him, but maybe he will be interested in it that in Czech republic prepare of new ASIC cost cca pound 2500.

Kapsa cooperates with Arxon computers and Sinclair Club Ostrov. Arxon computers is a company which distributates and sells computers like PC AT or sells disks, joysticks, graphic cards etc. Till 1991 it was distributor of Sam, and it's probably one of the reasons why they are interested in Sam.

Sinclair Club Ostrov is one of the last Sinclair club in Czech republic. Unfortunately, it's not in Prague, and so some members coming to study in Prag are taking asylum in Kapsaclub. We together have a lot of plans in future and we hope wew ill be able to do them all.
