Hey Bob. Thanks so much for doing this!!! I signed up last week, but the website only allowed me to select one time slot, so I hope you won't kick me out for the rest of the day! ;-) Chris On Tue, May 7, 2024 at 9:50 AM Bob Roswell via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
You are invited to the System Source Computer Museum Open House on 5/17 featuring three special guests below. We filled the last open house with just one of the special guests, so sign up soon! (We will close registration at 120, currently at 105)
Corey Cohen http://myapplecomputer.net/about-me.html will begin testing the components of our Apple 1 https://www.apple1registry.com/en/10.html. By the end of the day, we expect to turn on the Apple 1 for the first time in a very long time!
David Lovett, AKA Usagi Electric, will discuss his progress repairing our Bendix G-15. He has well over 760,000 views worldwide following this project at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnw98JPyObn3QSIwUz5Iv6NA1x-uGFqAa. Enjoy!
Dr. Barry Marshall, an Australian physician and 2005 Nobel Prize winner in Medicine https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Marshall, is expected in the morning with his wife Adrienne. Dr. Marshall learned about the museum from the Usagi Electric videos. David Lovett was once seriously ill with gastric ulcer. Fortunately, Dr. Marshall and his research partner identified that some ulcers are caused by a bacterial infection from Helicobacter pylori, and the disease is now treatable. This discovery lead to David's health and Dr. Marshall's Nobel Prize.
