I’m very pleased to announce that Chris Fala is joining the VCF East steering committee, bringing us to a full complement of five members. For those who don't know Chris, here is some background:
Chris Fala (chris.fala@vcfed.org) is an Information Technology Support Consultant living in Lansdale, PA. His first exposure to computers was as a young teenager when his school received a TRS-80 (Model I) on which he taught himself BASIC. Later, his sister, who worked at Commodore at the time, gave him a VIC-20. In high school, he used a TRS-80 Model III, and in college he learned Pascal and FORTRAN on an Apple IIe, and C on a VAX system. His love of vintage computers and desire to preserve history and hardware was kindled years later when he saw an Altair computer "in person" at a Maker Faire. He loves to teach BASIC to kids (and adults), and strives to foster an appreciation of the technology and history that are often taken for granted today. (He hopes that Adam will teach him 6502 assembly.)
We look forward to working with Chris to help bring more improvements to everything we do. Please join us in welcoming him to the committee.
