Vintage Computer Festival cancelled this year!

In an e-mail, Sellam Ismail, organizer of the Vintage Computer Festival held in Mountain View, California, has unofficially announced that there will be no VCF this year! Though the official announcement is forthcoming, he says that they are skipping this year but will be back "bigger and better than ever for VCF 11 and the next ten years of VCF".

Oh, no FCUG table at the
show this year!

Though there is no VCF this year, plans are afoot for next year's VCF 11. So far, along with the Commodore 64/128 gear, we've talked about bringing my refurbished Amiga 1200 tower, Duncan M.'s X68000 computer (a hit at VCF X), a MSX computer, and an Apple IIGS with Transwarp GS accelerator. All for the crowd to see and use.

What is our table becoming?!

This sounds like something that attaches to a flux capacitor.

Only if the anomalies detected in the impulsive conditioning balance the forward transponder with delphic transducers!

Boing! Too much TNG!

I'm pretty sure that would damage the warp core.
