We have already had some people donate SD card solutions to the museum which makes doing demos much easier. I'm looking for people to donate an SD card solution for the machines in the museum. This list of machines that need them are here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sfGEttaQZUwEH7bkvErH1Aey9AdvdwepWoo… Let me know if you want to donate any of these or if you have any questions.

Upcoming Repair Workshop May 15 & 16
by Jeffrey Brace 07 May '21

07 May '21

So I'm thinking I will try to make a reservation with Brick House Tavern + Tap this time. I will call many hours ahead of time. I love the Main Street Bar and Grill, but I'm thinking everyone wants to try something different if possible. Also for Sunday, how does everyone feel about continuing the Sunday morning bagel order versus going out to a diner? I was thinking that we can start going back to the OB diner. Signup for the repair workshop is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17n7rQol7xt3f0dnAwA8zrMHy4vHw163xjXQ… ========================================= Jeff Brace Vice President & Board Member Vintage Computer Festival East Show-runner Vintage Computer Federation is a 501c3 charity http://www.vcfed.org/ jeffrey(a)vcfed.org

OT: UPS battery for sale (APC BE-750BB)
by Jeffrey Brace 07 May '21

07 May '21

Hello everyone, I accidentally got the wrong replacement battery for my brother's UPS. It is for the APC model ES-750. But the battery type is: BE750BB. They company refurbups.com wouldn't take it back because it wasn't worth their while because of the high cost of shipping, but they gave me a discount on the correct battery. I got it a month ago and never used it obviously. Asking for the original price I paid of $37. Local pickup. I live 10 minutes from InfoAge. Send me a private message if interested. ========================================= Jeff Brace Vice President & Board Member Vintage Computer Festival East Show-runner Vintage Computer Federation is a 501c3 charity http://www.vcfed.org/ jeffrey(a)vcfed.org
