So, okay.. I volunteer to hold a DEC-oriented

Hmmm, sounds interesting, besides the our local swap meet is really to PC
oriented to be that interesting, despite being called a CP/M User Group
Swap Meet. There are several of us Classic Computer types in the area.
Now where is this warehouse :^)
Or for a truely frightening thought get Paxton to hold an "Open Warehouse".

Paxton's warehouse is always open it you know the right door to try.
BTW I heard from him a few days ago and he says April 17th is the final sale.

Jim,
So there really will be an auction this time? (maybe). I'm still trying
to get him to give me some prices on some of his stuff. This makes, let's
see, about 20 months!

Well... there is a lot of interest in the 'garage
get-together'. So I should really get logistical now. So we can
make Plans:
I need a little prep time if I'm going to be entertaining...
right now there is literally no room in my house for more than three
folks, one of them being me. I had planned on moving a good deal of
gear this weekend.
I would like to kick off the SoCal After-TRW Consort Logicel
Ancien **NEXT MONTH** ie in April, the weekend of the 24th. I will
be working until 10PM friday night and saturday's the swap here.
Everyone who is interested please e-mail me so I have an idea of who
might be coming.. I live in a rather rural area of LA so there are
those issues to be dealt with.
Anyone planning on travelling from out of the local area please
get with me to nail down times and routes and other fussy bookkeeping.
Again>>>> NEXT MONTH (April 24th) for the 1st SoCal CLA meet)
Cool?
John
