Held in Furulund, Sweden. About 200 people attended. Also known as "Furulund Party" and "Pepsi Hacker Conference". The computer press, represented by Digital (norway), Oberoende Computer (sweden) and DatorMagazin (sweden) were present, as well as some of the big Swedish newspapers, like Sydsvenska Dagbladet and Kvällsposten. In order to make their event appear more professional, organisers prohibited copying pirated software - a regulation noone stuck to. (Info by Knatter/XAKK, 2015-05-31). There was no usual demo competition; instead, there were competitions for music, gfx and best utility program. There were 12 contributions for music, three pictures and two utilities submitted. Three tunes were chosen by the arrangers, and then played up for the audience, who voted.
Information from Robert Hed's report in Digital 4/89 (Amiga fanzine) and report in Datormagazin 13/89 (papermag). Photos from the party by Knatter/XAKK are available here.
