VCF East 2023!

[Memory]

hey! next weekend (april 14-16) is VCF East, a convention happening in New Jersey that's all about vintage computers! there's going to be exhibits of rare and unusual computers/hardware in action, talks, classes, workshops, and people buying and selling old computers and tech.

this will be my first ever time attending a VCF event and i'm super excited for it! i'll be bringing along a bunch of 70s/80s home computers to sell, and i'm hoping to pick up a G3 or G4 mac while i'm there.

will anyone else here be attending this VCF? (or any other VCF events this year? i'm planning on also attending VCF midwest in september!)

I won't be able to attend, since I'm not in America. Is there going to be a live stream of the event?

If not, can you take some videos and share them when you get back?

Sadly I can't make it but I too would love to see pictures and videos!!!

yeah, i'll totally be recording video! i just got a bunch of new miniDV tapes in, so i should have enough to get plenty of footage while i'm there.

it also looks like they're planning on streaming the talks to youtube, so you should be able to watch it there: https://vcfed.org/events/vintage-computer-festival-east/vcf-east-virtual-show/

sadly i didn't really get to take any video, and i didn't take near as many photos as i wish i would've, but the few i did take are available in my blog post.
