Today was great!
Yes, they do sell tickets at the door.
but, . . .
They don't take CASH!
"Legal tender for all debts public or private", but they don't take it!
Lots of great exhibits
There was a substantial pile of Dell 5150 and 5160 laptops on the "FREE"
table. Dell 5150 is unrelated to IBM 5150, nor to a 3-day hold.

Well I managed to make it to the 2nd day of VCF-West. Very nice. I haven't been to
many of them (this was my third one) but by far this was the best, and at least to me,
most heavily attended one I had seen. The age group of participants was also significantly
different. Lots of younger folks, couples doing dates, and kids. The exhibits were also
really interesting a bit Mac heavy but that is understandable. For those that went anybody
have pictures up yet?
