The display of older computers is a chance to actually see some of these ancient beasts we talk about on the list. Last year, one of the sellers described it as being basically a "social event"; it is a wonderful way to meet other people interested in the same things we are. And don't forget the sellers area. The prices on almost everything I have seen is for the most part fairly reasonable. And if it is not reasonable, look at it as another part of the computer exhibits! Stuff sold last year? Let's see: PC Jr., C-16, MITS 680, C-64SX, Atari, HP, TRS, Cray boards, Morrow, ... My mind is sleepy right now, but perhaps others can fill in more stuff that was sold. Fortunately, there has been little in the way of DEC stuff to get in the way (ducking and running :). ) Actually, it would be nice to see some of the PDP series exhibited (I think there was at VCF 1.0.) I think though that the sellers area is where most of the interesting conversations, etc. take place. And of course there was a rumor that at last years event, an Apple I sold for about $2K. With the additional interest in older computers that is being GREATLY helped by ebay (and others), it wouldn't surprise me to see the attendence go up many times that of the past.
