Sigh......I remember my students days in Amsterdam.....actually I can't, not
sure what I was doing during those years.... must have been the many happy
mushrooms I eat or was it the daily morning space cake?.... :-)

But the X-Fest seminar there was a month ago...
But the traditional European FPGA conference will be in Amsterdam in
August.

Has anyone success to register on the avnet site? It didn't work for me.
Tried IE and Firefox.

Like the joke here about attending UC Berkeley in the late 1960's
("summer of love"): "if you can remember it, you weren't here."
By the way, I was (for a short time) a counselor for the BCIPD (Berkeley
Committee for Information on Psychedelic Drugs): one of the great
crimes, and wastes of good minds was the abuse of both legal, and
illegal drugs by the youth of that time. These poor souls are now
cluttering up the mental hospitals, or wandering the streets, and have
become a burden to society.
Not that I have any solution to this (continuing) problem, but I at
least had the chance to talk to people and try to convince them not to
turn their brains into soup.
I am also fortunate I survived.

The answer is: Yes, yes, and yes.
The earlier engineers/students become familiar with our parts, the
better.
Herzlich willkommen. Es ist nie zu frueh, mit FPGAs vertraut zu
werden.

Hi Austin,
I wasn't serious, most people associate Amsterdam with drugs which is
obviously a distorted view. To be honest, I was actually quite a boring
non-smoking, non-drinking, non-drug taking nerd that spend most of his time
studying and playing with his AppleII+............. oh well, at least I
ended up with a great job :-)
Drugs (mainly alcohol here in the UK) it is indeed a serious problem but I
am afraid that even if there was a solution nobody would take notice of it,
Regards,
Hans.

I too, was a boring, slide rule toting Engineering "nerd."
As I walked across campus, the Alameda County Sheriffs ("Blue Meanies)
would be drinking their coffee with their dough nuts, remarking "good
day for a riot, isn't it?"
Go read "People's Park" on Wikipedia for a fairly well written
historical account of those days.

>Avnet picked Eindhoven as the preferred site in the Netherlands.
They probably didn't want to drive too far themselves. Eindhoven is a
bit of a technology hotspot due to Philips but it is in the east part
of the country. Most people and companies are located in the west part
of the country. Most major events are therefore either located in
Amsterdam or Utrecht.

Allright!
Peter Alfke
Amsterdam to Eindhoven is 120 km or 75 miles, barely an hour's drive.
But 6 hours by bicycle, the favorite mode of transportation.
Nice, flat country... :-)
(I grew up just on the other side of that border, and rode my bike all
over the Netherlands, long time ago.)

So, to tie in with another part of this thread, FPGA's really are like
drugs. Get them while they're young and the first hit is free.

That is probably true on sunday 22:00 in the evening during the summer
holiday and if you have money to pay for the speeding tickets. The
rest of the week it is a bigger misery due to traffic congestion. 3
hours is more likely (using the train may be faster if nothing goes
wrong there).

pretty soon you'll be into stronger stuff like FPGAs.
