So VCF 7.0 was pretty damn awesome. Thanks to all who
came, especially to
those who exhibited.
I totally agree. It was a bit of a whirlwind, and I didn't get
to talk to enough people, and got conferencitis (dry throat,
dehydrated, didn't eat enough, sore feet from standing in
hallways talking).
The talks I did attend were varied and interesting, the exhibits
I barely got enough time to walk through exhaustively (probably
2.5hrs total, could have used another hour) and some of the
exhibits, such as the home-built Meccano differential analyzer
(!) were terrifyingly great.
Never mind the pdp1, visible storage, the 1401 resto ...
Three cheers to Sellam and his wife for all the work!
