CoCoFEST & Re: NYT on the Theft of Altair BASIC

Rumor has it that Bill Pechter may have mentioned these words: Guts? Sure. Hell, I'm not afraid of him. (Scott McNealy is my hero... ;-) Info? I don't have it, and wouldn't have a clue as to where to find it... but if I did, I'd take a crack at writing it (if, of course, I actually had the time... ;-) Me too... Some of my close friends mention to me about my MS "opinion" which, simply put, is (low, loud, gravelly booming voice) "Windows Sucks" but mainly because in a computer-selling-business-environment it's not that great to say to the general computer-buying populace, which is true and I'm working on that. <Soapbox> However, for those friends who tell me "you only say that because you're jealous" 1) don't know me very well - I'm not interested in monetary wealth beyond comfortable living, and 2) would get the book... ahem... as we say in the US Army - up their 3rd point of contact, just before a Size 9 Kiwi Enema (the name taken for the type of boot polish used in the Military, not the NZ fruit... ;-) </Soapbox> Anywho - back on track - just a friendly reminder that on May 5 & 6th, 2001, the Glenside Color Computer Club is holding the 10th annual "Last" Chicago CoCoFEST in Elgin, Illinois - and I *actually* asked the time off to go this time!!! Damn, I've wanted to go for over 15 years, and I finally can!!! :-) :-) For more info, email Tony Podraza - tonypodraza(a)juno.com or Brian Goers, bgoers(a)ais.net.
