I'd be happy to help run something like that for badges, whether it's Lee Hart's badge or something else.
We're not going to devote our resources to badges from another event
First off: *I apologize since I couldn't figure out how to change the subject line via the Gmail web interface. *Now back to the message! Actually, that is not really accurate regarding the 6502 Badge. Since there has been some interest, I have had some correspondence with Lee Hart about the 6502 badge project and I am purchasing 25 basic kits to sell at my vendor space at VCF-E. Lee pointed out that this badge is not a VCF-MW product; it is a product of the design team comprising Lee Hart*, * Josh Bensadon and Daryl Rictor. They simply took it to VCFMW as our first opportunity to sell it. The PCB silkscreen was customized and the default message was changed for the event by the design team. Lee has had to order two more batches of boards since then. One batch went to Germany, for their VCF in Berlin last fall. Another went to a French VCF. He has another order for the VCF in Switzerland in March. Here are links to the images for the current Rev C boards. The default message is "6502 badge for VCF" which can be changed through accessing the monitor program through the serial interface <http://www.sunrise-ev.com/photos/6502/badgeCfrontPCB.gif> <http://www.sunrise-ev.com/photos/6502/badgeCbackPCB.gif> I will also be offering some of Oscar Vermuelen's KIM UNO boards (assembled) and some of Sergey Kiselev's Z-80 based Zeta2 and ParPortProp boards (assembled) running CP/M among the usual S-100, Apple, early IBM PC stuff and assorted micro trainers.
