VCF Security

Michael, I'll weigh in on this as well. I've been to two VCFs and had no problems. And, if anyone WOULD have a security problem, it would be me: I collect vintage handhelds and PDAs which are a heck of a lot easier to steal than someone's Altair or DEC box. I do take precautions when I want to look around the exhibit hall or attend a lecture -- for example, I set up my booth as late as possible before the doors open to the public, to minimize the time when my stuff is just sitting around; I always ask a nearby exhibitor to keep watch if I'm going away for food or to the bathroom or wherever; and as my collection grows, I'm transitioning from using cardboard boxes and suitcases to using professional / lockable display cases. But I digress... VCF is a super-safe event and we all look out for each other. - Evan --- swtpc6800(a)comcast.net wrote:
