Does anyone go to VCFs? I discovered the whole vintage computing thing several
years ago... I have personally been into the hobby since those machines were
just 'computers' instead of 'vintage computers.'

I went to VCFSW in Dallas and VCFMW in Chicago last year, but was only able to
attend VCFMW this year because of financial constraints.

I did a Packet Radio exhibit at VCFMW both years, which was well-received. I
sold a few of my Laser 128 Apple II clones this year, along with a black face
ADAT machine that I used to use in my studio.

I bought an Atari 800XL, an ADM-22 terminal, and brought home a couple of
free G3 iMacs. I also found a RGB monitor for my Apple IIgs in the free pile,
which turned out to be perfectly functional!

The ADM-22 looks nice sitting on top of my Altair 8800 :)
