The workshop will have persons of all skill levels, including
individuals with 40+ years experience in attendance. The "Teletype
101" is expanding into a workshop for all experience
levels. Whatever your skill level there should be someone who can
help you. I will be bringing an SWTPc 6800 or a PDP 11 as a demo
unit, depends on space, etc. If you buy a teletype, you can work on
it/get help on the spot - a good deal!
Here is the official email about the teletypes. Please read this
over carefully.
PLEASE SEND INQUIRIES TO ME DIRECTLY (if the below does not answer
your questions).

In addition to the workshop itself, your $40 also gets you:
- Entry into the drawing to win a free "serviceable" teletype.
- $40 applied to the purchase of a teletype, "dibs" in the order of
registration (first to register = first to pick from what's
available, second, etc.).
- If you do not show up for the workshop you lose your place in line
but the $40 can be applied to a purchase from what's available.
- The $40 deposit is non-refundable.
NOTE: You have to make the remaining balance due payment in order to
take possession of your teletype.
b. Purchase outright/Pick up any time
- If you don't want to wait until the workshop, you can buy a
teletype outright by paying full price in advance of the VCF. First
come first served.
- I will mark the photos with the names of the purchaser after
payment has been received.
