It is of course the BIG event but I'm not sure of >its release date, after all it already won Kaufbeuren 2004 ! this was a prototype in 2004 the OFFICIAL RELEASE date was MAY 05 > >So what makes you say that 2005 was a pretty good year ? there are many and i am planning to write a "YEAR IN REVIEW" article to be posted here before the year is out, but i think the most significant event is the noticeable increase in collectors worldwide there are several reasons for this of course ,which i will offer my opinion on in the article(for whatever my opinion is worth) also i think the level of knowledge has risen .. i can say Alain i get many e-mails from collectors or people interested in dedicated computers as i am sure you do with your wonderful site the typical question i would receive not even a year ago would be something like.. "what is the difference between a CC1 and a CC3"? clearly indicating a newbie to the hobby (which is wonderful to begin with) but now the questions are far more sophisticated ..asking about progammers,technical specs..etc etc so i think the number of collectors has increased and the overall level of knowledge..which i have not seen until this year Reflecting Regards Steve > >PS : for ME, 2005 was a good year, to name only my favourites : Rebel V, >Constellation Forte, Munich Risc 1MB, Designer Mach III, Elite Avant Garde, >Super Expert C, Roma 68020, Renaissance and 20 years of Europe Echecs wow! i of course follow your collection as it grows on yuor site,,but to see it all in one place is quite impressive
