Some updates ....
1. VCF East 7.0 is on Facebook:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Vintage-Computer-Festival-East-70/12799934393…
Yes, that link stinks. Facebook says we need 25 page fans before we're
entitled to a customized link. So please "like" and become a fan of our
page ASAP.
2. Dan "Ragooman" Roganti will run a "Build your own transistor logic
circuit" workshop. Neat!
3. Our exhibit registration is open at
http://www.vintage.org/2011/east/index.php (click the 'exhibits' link on
the top right), BUT, it currently only works for people who previously
registered. It's not working for new registrants. We're trying to fix
that.
4. So far we have lectures confirmed about UNIVAC/Unisys and about the
heydey of homebrewed microcomputing in the NYC, NJ, and Philadelphia
region. We're working to create lectures about Monrobot; Bell Labs'
TRADIC; Electronic Associates; the IBM 1130; Jason Scott's Get Lamp; and
our future museum plans. We'll announce those when they become official.
5. So far four exhibitors signed up. We expect 20-30 overall, in line
with our past VCF Easts.
6. We'll also have consignment sales, a used book sale, and museum tours.
7. This year's VCF East t-shirt will be AWESOME. The only way to get
one is to be there. :)
