VCF Midwest 2024 Post-Show

I went last year for the first time(been to East a handful of times before that) and had a blast.

 

[KennyPowers]

I'm going for my first time this year.

 

[eric]

My second year as well - Jay and I will have a BlueSCSI booth with a ton of cool things to check out - come stop by and ask about Wi-Fi - see some demo's of whats coming next - and pick up a few BlueSCSI's!

 

[ScutBoy]

I'll be there. Bringing a bunch of Sun workstations this year (and maybe some SGI), but there will be Apple/Mac stuff as well.

My friend and I will be in our customary spot at the end of the hall near the "back door" across from the free table

 

[techknight]

Imma be there this year for the first time as well, exhibiting with the rest of my friends.

 

[Crutch]

Maybe not interesting to others but I an annoyed enough to share that I will not be there even though it’s about a 20 minute drive from my house — I was excited to go for the first time but a family vacation got scheduled for the same weekend. Next year, I really hope ….

Family vacations arnt something ive been on in decades. VCF basically is my vacation anymore

 

[MacOfAllTrades]

Ill be there showing off my app for System 7, MacDock! J/k but I will try to fly out if I can make low cost arrangements.
Actually it’d be cool to see the wifi blue scsi stuff so I’ll keep an eye out for you all.
I’m also hoping to snag an imagewriter if I see one on the free area table

I am going to have MacDock (and other community apps) loaded up on our demo machines

 

[MacOfAllTrades]

Now you're making my day! Haha I'll die if/when I see my app on another's machine in a public setting.

 

[Action Retro]

Heck yeah I'll be there!

 

[CygnusTM]

I just worked out that I'll be able to attend. My first one of these. So excited!

 

[MacOfAllTrades]

Getting excited about this -- I'll be there first thing Saturday morning for several hours!

 

[Mac84]

I'll see you all there, very excited for the event this year!

 

[CygnusTM]

I'm sad to say I'm not going to make it. COVID in the household, so staying home to play it safe. Have fun, everyone!

 

[MacOfAllTrades]

To all of you whom I met on the show floor - what a pleasure. To those I didn’t - I hope to do so soon.
What a great vibe and spirit at the show!!

 

[KennyPowers]

I had a great time at VCFMW! I was hoping to come back with less stuff than I brought...that did *not* happen

Finally got my hands on the A2 RGB monitor I've always wanted but would never risk shipping:

 

[eric]

Just got back - was a blast - but next year I dont think I'll be a "vendor" (maybe just wear a "BlueSCSI" backpack and sell that way - talked to so many people about SCSI - Jay and I sold everything we brought except 4 (which was a lot!!)

Sold the 2 computers I wanted to get rid of - picked up a eMate($50) and a 9600($100) for pretty good prices.

Drained, but a great show and wish I could have seen more of the floor.

 

[ScutBoy]

I also failed the "come home with less than you brought" test, but the stuff I brought home is really cool

 

[JDW]

Just got back - was a blast....

Thanks to @Ron's Computer Videos , I was able to see you at the show, Eric!

Nice!

Love that little Maccy too!
