I always figured it would be just a bunch of neckbeards talking about the "good ole days"...

Hundreds of people are there... families... men, women, and children.

...with some yellowed demo machines on display.

A wide variety of 1960's to early 1990's computers are there.  To see photos from past VCF East's, go to

and click on the Vintage East links.

Oh... and those gun-metal gray computers from the 1960's don't yellow.  ;)

Last year I stayed at the Rodeway Inn which was less than 2 miles from the VCF East venue.  The Rodeway was plain but comfortable.

Didn't see any rats,
