Just a friendly suggestions to make sure this does happen if you really want it to.

One person needs to take the lead and be in charge of the event. Do not leave it open to suggestions. Set where it will definitely be. If not, it will never get done.

Good luck, but if someone does not do the above, and do it soon, going to be a thread full of nothing but people saying what they prefer it to be.

Right, so I will be in charge and will say London? London is easy to get too and I don't mind picking people up on my way down. I might even bring my wife!

Next thing is a date I'm thinking sometime in August or perhaps after the Olympics?

August sounds excellent.

How about one of the two Apple Stores?

Oh that'd I'd like to see...

"Hello, we are from NeoWIN and we set this place as our meeting point..."

Apple Store guy: "Oh-kaaaay........"

whistles to colleagues: "They have arrived, pick your weapons!"

Glassed Silver:mac

Or outside? :p

There is a huge meeting area outside the Covent Garden store.

London ... meh! So much for the middle of the country as suggested in the OP. What about any Neowin members

up in Scotland that might be interested in attending? They'll have to travel 400-500 miles or more to get there!

I'm suddenly reminded of a once popular catchy song from the 1980's by a certain Scottish pop-duo . . . !

    • Too late for a slightly older computer I had that didn't meet the hardware requirements for Windows 11 but had great hardware. I installed ubuntu on that thing and gave to a friend's kid.
