Would like to hear it was this year,
vintage-computer-wise....
I gave a report after my Friday run (including dinner with the classiccmp
gang afterwards).
In short, cool, not too much sun, no real rain, a few 1980s micros, an
AIM-65 w/two 8" drives for $500, an Altair 8800b w/2 8" drives for $1000,
some classic goodies in Dan Cohoe's truck to act as bait/geek-flypaper...
personally, I picked up a few things on my shopping list, but didn't see
people selling many ICs in tubes (something I went looking for). Fewer
goodies of interest to me than last time (2003). Virtually no DEC stuff,
and very little Sun stuff compared to previous years.
