I, for the life of me, didn't recall. Now that you've contacted me, I recall this. Sorry but I couldn't find any other email referneces to cyber-security. I'll remove the dispute immediately.

> There's gonna be a VCF _West_ this year? Shh, don't tell anyone. :) It will not be this year (which ends in 30 days). I can't say more until some business things are settled.

Sorry to bother you listmates… Vaxman, I’d really appreciate it if you would reach out and explain to me why I suddenly have a PayPal payment dispute from you but no other emails to explain it. I tried to reach you directly but your listed email address bounces. Thanks

Update - new museum space
by Evan Koblentz 01 Dec '15

01 Dec '15

Everyone, Here are some updates on our new museum space. We're still working on final details of the lease. We are on course to move from our current museum (in building 9032-C) to the new space (in building 9010-A) in the first half of 2016. Obviously the goal is to get the new space up and running in time for VCF East in mid-April. I took some pictures after Jeff B., Tony (+son), Steve A., and I set up the new space for Festivus yesterday. The file at http://snarc.net/alcove.jpg shows an alcove in one corner of the room. It's a food area during Festivus, however for the museum it will be a hands-on learning laboratory. No, we can't keep the fridge in there year-round. :) The file at http://snarc.net/theater.jpg shows 16 chairs facing a short wall. We'll put the portable screen and/or the screen from David G. on a table so it's high up. The file at http://snarc.net/inner.jpg shows the wall along the hallway. That's Steve A. at the far door. The near door is the middle of three, so it is fine to block it. (We will put a "do not open" sign on the other side.) Third door is off-camera to the right. Either the middle door or the off-camera one will became a double doorway in the near future. We do not yet know which one. The file at http://snarc.net/overall.jpg shows the whole room from our "Festivus Theatre" area looking out. We will put two or three more tables in the middle for Festivus. For the museum, there will be a faux wall down the middle which stops about 10 feet from each end. The side by the doors will have a welcome desk and mainframes. The end by Festivus Theatre will be minicomputers. The side by the windows will be microcomputers. The short wall between the alcove and the doors will be an exhibit of "history of the present". Rather than just having boring straight aisles, the exhibits will be arranged so as to make people weave and wind. That gives a sense that you're exploring vs. simply walking through. There will be more of this as you move from mainframes to minis to micros, due to equipment size -- it's difficult to arrange mainframes any way other than in rows; it's easy with microcomputers. The full layout in its latest (fourth) version has room for 26 microcomputers that can be up-and-running (on tables) and dozens more that can be static displays on shelves above the tables. However, the layout is still being prepared so I can't share that. Soon...

Gobble, gobble!

Happy Thanksgiving to all. 2015 was a good year for us! Many new members, fantastic artifacts came to us, VCF East bigger than ever, starting a non-profit, and moving forward with a larger museum space. In two weekends we'll celebrate. For now, I hope everyone has a relaxing day with family/friends, good food, and (since we're nerds) 8-bit videogame football.
