RISC OS 5.20 at the Midlands Show

Posted by Steve Revill Thu, 11 Jul 2013 20:57:00 GMT

RISC OS Open are very pleased to announce that we will be attending the Midlands RISC OS Show this Saturday, 13th July.

At the show this year we will unveil the latest stable release of RISC OS, version 5.20, which has well over 600 changes, improvements and bug fixes since the previous stable release.

RISC OS 5.20 is an even-numbered release so it has been verified as stable for the Castle Iyonix PC, the RComp ARMini and – for the first time ever with RISC OS 5, on Acorn-branded hardware such as the RiscPC and A7000.

There will be a lot of show exclusives so come along and take a look! If you want to buy any of these items online, more information will be following on the ROOL site next week.

Update on proposed RISC OS show

Posted by Steve Revill Thu, 06 Jun 2013 14:03:00 GMT

We’re still planning for a potential free RISC OS show down in Portsmouth. Thanks to everyone who has responded up to now. It’s now looking pretty clear that the July date isn’t a good one so we are thinking of trying for a date in September instead.

If you’re interested in coming along to the show, either as an exhibitor or as a visitor, please get in touch here to let us know which date (a Saturday in September) would work best for you.
