I figured others would want to know about this.
Thanks for the link! That's pretty close to the farm, might have to try and make it out. FYI the town it's in is pronounced "Hurr-a-kun."
I have gone on two computer rescues in West Virginia, you never know what might be there, I can say that for sure.
There was actually some hardware development going on in WV in the 1970s, if not earlier. Eagle River (iirc) in Charleston (still around) produced S-100 data acquisition boards. The mining and chemical industries of course would've been switching to computerization. I went to school in Beckley for a number of years and knew a bunch of vintage computer/gaming nerds, not *super* surprising someone's put together an event! Thanks, Jonathan
