Title: Vintage Computer Festival West XI
Post by: curtis on July 17, 2016, 04:02:13 PM

IT'S BACK!!!

The original VCF will be Aug 6-7 in Mountain View, CA at the Computer History Museum.

Checking through the list of exhibitors, I noticed the Amiga will be represented by a group in Los Gatos displaying computers from the A1000 to the AmigaOne X5000 along with some interesting peripherals.

I've got my trip planned and booked.

Anyone else showing up?

Hey Curtis,

We'll have 2 tables at the VCF showing a handful of systems.  One of the big differences between our display and the others is the Amiga's will be fully hands on and running.  

Big thank you for the dedicated group of volunteers who put together the Amiga 30th in Mountain View for also stepping up to do this :)

Cheers,
Bill

I am seriously looking forward to it!

Last time I had planned to attend VCF in Mountain View, there was a little incident regarding some terrorists flying into the World Trade Center!

My flight was canceled and I ended up driving to DFW for a weekend.  Kinda of eerie looking up at the sky in Dallas and see absolutely NO planes overhead.

Really stoked about the revival of the original VCF.

I will try my best to attend on Saturday, the first day of the show.
