I'm making plans to be in the Florida panhandle on May 2nd next year. (a
relative's college graduation). I will be staying in Fort Walton Beach,
although I can get a rental car. Anything to do there for a vintage
computer geek like me? Or, anyone have a big collection there and just want
to hang out?

I have a collection, but I'm way down the peninsula in Boca Raton, home of
the IBM PC (and just around the corner from the former home of IBM Boca
Raton). And aside from that, I'm not aware of anything else classic
computer related in Florida.

New subject: Zeos Pocket PC
Anybody got a dead Zeos Pocket PC, and have the accessories?
I need the parallel/serial cables, mebbe a PCMCIA card or 2 as well.
on another front, if anyone has a gateway handbook, I think I have a
parallel adapter
for it. If someone is in need, I can take a pic and verify that's what it
it.

I'm a few hours south of there, near Sarasota. I've got a decent
collection here which you're more than welcome to fondle, but
otherwise, as far as I can tell, this area is a total technological
wasteland.
