HELP SAVE THE COMPUTER GARAGE! Jim Willing's Computer Garage has been around for ages. Due to a series of unfortunate events, the Computer Garage collection is in peril, and your help is needed. Jim moved to the midwest last year and has been trying to relocate his collection. The people in whose hands he left the remainder of the collection didn't do a good job of keeping up on storage rent, and so now the collection is in jeopardy of being lost. Additionally, Jim has fallen on hard times. Jim is a very swell guy, has been a computer collector for longer than most of us, and has been a speaker at every single VCF since the beginning, so I feel I owe him a debt of gratitude and have decided to try to help him. For those of you who don't know Jim Willing or have never visited the Computer Garage, go here: http://www.rdrop.com/~jimw The Computer Garage is impressive, and needs to stay intact. I'd like to announce the formation of the Save The Computer Garage Fund. All proceeds from anything I announce for sale to the list will go towards this fund. The goal is to raise $1000. I will be putting up a webpage on the VCF website to solicit donations. In the meantime, if you would like to contribute to the fund, please e-mail me and let me know what you can give. Time is of the essence. I'll be pulling out stuff that I have excess of and posting them to the list for sale. Watch out for that in the next 24 hours. Please help if you can. I know times are tough but even $5 will suffice. -- Sellam Ismail Vintage Computer Festival ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ International Man of Intrigue and Danger http://www.vintage.org * Old computing resources for business and academia at www.VintageTech.com *
