----------------------------------------------

Dear Atari friends,

  It's once again time for the Nordic Atari Show, the annual get together
which has rapidly become a fixture for all Atari users.

  Third time lucky, so they say, and as we are arrange the show for the
third straight year we hope to fulfill everyone's expectations and that
this will result in the best possible atmosphere. We've gotten a certain
amount of criticism, both positive and negative, from those who have
attended the shows in '95 and '96. We've taken heed of the suggestions
made and we're once again off and running!


- WHEN AND WHERE?

  This year the show will begin on Friday, June 13 and end on Sunday,
June 15. This is the weekend following the beginning of the summer school
holidays as well as the weekend prior to the Swedish Midsummer
celebrations. We'll open at 1 p.m. on the Friday and close at 6 p.m. on
the Sunday.

  The show will take place in Gothenburg, just has it has in previous
years. The exact venue has not yet been established. We're still looking
for the cheapest location. The likeliest possibility is Kortedala
gymnasium, where it was held last year or some other venue, nearby.


- WHAT ACTIVITIES WILL BE HELD?

* There will be an Exhibition Hall will dealers, distributors, ShareWare
  programmers and a host of other interesting personalities. The usual
  meeting place for all those not wanting to "hack". This is also where
  the Swedish Atari Club will be found supplying information, sale of
  PD-disks, the club magazine's TT, the BBS, etc. We'll also have an area
  reserved for a swap meet where you can buy, swap or sell single copies
  of Atari related material and a "soldering corner" for those of you
  wishing simple repairs done.

* A "Hacker Hall" where demo and other programmers can gather for
  competitions and swap demos and all kinds of code. NoCrew is the
  Swedish demo group who will see to it that everybody takes part and
  enjoys themselves. Those of you hungry after rewards in the form of
  prizes will be well taken care of. Exactly WHAT prizes these will be
  hasn't been established, as yet.

* Seminars with a number of well-informed lecturers. Last years seminars
  were very much appreciated, something of which we naturally have taken
  notice. The seminars will cover a variety of subjects (i.e. MIDI
  ercording/editing, DTP, hardware, programming) where the above mentioned
  "well-informed lecturers" will demonstrate his subject directly on a
  computer in order to provide the audience with practical examples. We'll
  also hold the seminars on different days and at varying times so that
  you won't have to miss the chance if you don't attend on a particular
  day.

* Minor competitions such as "A-Z on the Keyboard" (a much appreciated
  contest last year), hard disk throwing (this year we WILL succeed!),
  network games, juggling, etc. Everything depends on our finding
  volunteers to act as game leaders and judges. There will be prizes
  for the winners.

* A refreshment stand will sell non-alcoholic drinks, sweets, chips,
  etc. We may be able to arrange quantity discounts at the local pizzeria
  as well as other bonuses.


- WHAT WILL IT COST?

  If you intend to attend all three days, you cheapest solution is the
Three Day Pass otherwise a Single Entry ticket will do:

*  Three Day Pass ... SEK 100:- (about UKP 8.50)
*  Single Entry ..... SEK  50:-

These prices include full access to all the activities being held during
NAS97.


- WHY SHOULD I ATTEND NAS?

The answer is simple: because you care about the TOS platform. We Atari
owners are becoming fewer and fewer and a get-together like NAS is a
simple way of seeing what's happening in the Atari world (no, it's not
dead!) and meeting like-minded Atarians and hearing what kind of tips,
ideas and visions they have.


- HOW CAN I FIND OUT MORE?

Information will be distributed regularly in the same way as this text
file. In addition, we have a number of other sources of information
where you can find out more about the show depending on your own resources.

* Our mailing list (E-mail). This will provide the very latest information
  to those on the list. To have yourself put on the list you MUST have an
  E-mail address. Send us a message on "nas-users-request@tripnet.se" with
  "subscribe nas-users" in the body of the text. Don't forget to include
  your E-mail address.

* Our home page on the World Wide Web. This has been in existence since
  last year and we'll try to update it as often as the information for the
  mailing list. The home page will contain more detailed information
  concerning times, schedule of events, directions on how to get there,
  competitions and housing.

  The address is "www.tripnet..se/sak/nas".

* STraight BBS. This is the Swedish Atari Club's home BBS. Information
  concerning NAS will be included in the SAK menu. You can also use this
  BBS to ask any questions you may have. The telephone number is:
  +46 31-336 39 73.

* Our club magazine, "AtariMagasinet", will contain adverts with more
  detailed information concerning NAS97 in issues 1/97 and 2/97. This is
  the largest mailshot we will send to our (SAK's) members.

* Our show co-ordinator is Rolf Johansson. He's supposed to know everyting
  there is to know about NAS97. If you have questions to which you've been
  unable to get answers anywhere else you can send him a message at
  "rojo@tripnet.se" and you'll get your answers. If you wish to get into
  direct contact with him, he can be reached on his mobile 'phone on
  +46 70-669 52 35.

 
  WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING YOU AT THE NORDIC ATARI SHOW 1997!
