VCF t-shirt mistake and sale!
by Jeffrey Brace 02 Apr '24

02 Apr '24

Hello everyone, I have some bad news and some good news. Due to an error on my part I sent the wrong file for the t-shirts. It was a draft drawing instead of the final drawing. See here: https://vcfed.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/T-shirt_Drawing.png Since I sent the wrong file, then it was my mistake and the company can't refund. So we will be selling off these shirts at $5 a piece. Luckily there was still time to print the "real" t-shirt design seen here: Kelly Green Front <https://vcfed.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/vcf_2024_t-shirt_kelly_front-s…> Kelly Green Back <https://vcfed.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/vcf_2024_t-shirt_kelly_back-sc…> Denim Blue Front <https://vcfed.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/vcf_2024_t-shirt_denim_front-s…> Denim Blue Back <https://vcfed.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/vcf_2024_t-shirt_denim_back-sc…> Enjoy!

OT: accessing files on a Windows Mobile 2003 phone
by Bob Shuster 02 Apr '24

02 Apr '24

I dug out a box of old cellphones yesterday, and the first ones I grabbed were Audiovox “smart” phones that have Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition on them (version 4.21.1088) and amazingly the batteries still hold a charge *and* they still have some data on them that I’d like to copy over before giving these away. Does anyone know how I might access the files on these? They have both Bluetooth and USB (mini-B.) I can connect to a modern Mac but while the device connects I cannot access the file system on the phone. I do not have easy access to a Windows computer. Any thoughts? Will these just show up if I connect to a Windows 10/11 computer? Also, these will be available for free should anyone have a use for them. There are like a dozen phones and associated chargers/cases. I need to go through them first and reset and/or at least remove SIM cards. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks - Bob Shuster

Fwd: [torontocbm] Bryan Pope

Forwarding a message from the TPUG mailing list I had no idea that he was sick. This is a shocker. He was a friend of mine since I joined MARCH in 2008. He was one of the original members. I just texted him Happy Birthday last week. Saw him only a year ago at World of Commodore.

After a brief battle with kidney cancer, our friend Brian Pope passed away this morning at 8:22am. Thank-you to all that were able to visit him at Grand View in Kitchener and thank-you to all that were a big or small part of his life. He greatly appreciated it. He will be missed.

I take cash. I am a vendor who is liquidating hundreds (maybe over a thousand) vintage computing items from my personal collection. This is me thinning my collection before I get too old to deal with it. I was formerly a vendor at the Trenton Computer Fest for 40+ years.

If you're *selling *something, the 4 options that I know of are: - Cash - Check - PayPal - Donate to Vintage Computer Federation Not sure what to do if you want to *purchase *something from Consignment, I bet cash is accepted.
