It actually had nothing to do with VCF. Someone from Infoage used it to prop open the back door of the main hotel building. I don’t recall if it was a dig at the “vintage computer group” or just because they could, but it was not someone from MARCH (there was no VCF yet) Evan would know better than I would since it was there around the time I started with the group almost 6 years ago. Pretty cool it fired up!! Tony Sent from my iPhone

Somehow I ended up with the infamous iMac doorstop over the weekend during the Festivus festivities, so I figured I'd plug it in to see what happened. It actually works! Someone stole the RAM at some point, but I just plugged some random sticks I found on the top of the stack and it booted straight into Mac OS 9. There are some pretty prevalent monitor problems, it appears only the red gun is working and the picture is smeary, but the fact it even boots at all is pretty entertaining.
I might lug it with me and display it next year if my exhibit idea works out. It's an interesting piece of VCF history, methinks.
