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. J
