Once again. Silent700 put together an incredible show for the Midwest
computer festival in Elk Grove. Every room that was rented was almost
overflowing most of the show, so I suspect attendance was great. I heard a
lot of good feedback on the speakers and presentations, and I also noticed
that the auction pile was bigger than each previous year.

 

I'm not sure which exhibit was my favorite, could be Pat's AVLVAX or Mikes
HP3000 - but I also seem to have spent more time than usual at all the C64,
A2+, and TRS80 machines. Maybe I'll take a detour to the 8-bitters in my
collection for the near term, we'll see!

 

In addition to the show, there were multiple parties and some late nights
spent hanging out with the folks I mostly get to see once a year so
friendships were renewed and such! Midwest is definitely a really fun show,
I strongly encourage anyone who hasn't been to come out next year.

 

Silent700 and helpers (mike et. Al.). thank you so much for your untiring
devotion to making Midwest such a great show.
