Christmas to come early for RISC OS users

VinceH

The RISC OS User Group of London (ROUGOL) announced barely a week ago that, sadly, they are not going to be able to proceed with this year’s London Show; the usual venue isn’t available, and they have been unable to find an alternative. This wasn’t entirely surprising – they were also unable to proceed last year, and they aren’t the only group to have faced struggles organising their annual event recently; the Wakefield RISC OS Computer Club (WROCC) also had problems with their annual event, but luckily did manage to…

Enjoy some Christmas cheer with ROUGOL

VinceH

The next meeting of the RISC OS User Group of London will take place on Monday, 17th December – but rather than a normal meeting, with a guest speaker, this last meeting before Christmas has instead been scheduled as the group’s informal Christmas Meal. This is because the normal venue for ROUGOL’s meetings, the upstairs restaurant in the Blue-Eyed Maid, tends to be in high demand at this time of year. Therefore, the group may have to meet downstairs, in the bar – making it an ideal opportunity for those…

VinceH

Announcement from Andrew Rawnsley. 2015 has been a very busy year for us here at R-Comp and RCI. With lengthy back-orders on ARMX6 all year, we’ve been rushing to complete machines and develop new products and improvements. As such, we’ve not had any holiday time this year, and so have decided to take some “family time” as the year draws to a close.
