This is not an official VCFed thing, but, this weekend I'll be demoing the Apple // + Lego robot setup with GardenSLUG -- that's Garden State Lego User Group (an "Adult Fan of Lego" aka "AFOL" group, so they tell me) at the NJToyCon in Parsippany. https://www.toyconnj.com/ This will be my first time meeting the adult Lego group people. I mean, what a bunch of wackos, grown men spending their time and money on their hobby from the 1970s and 1980s .... oh, crap. ;) Anyway I have no idea if my demo will fit in, but they seem welcoming so I'll go and have fun. It is only 30 minutes from home. ________________________________ Evan Koblentz, director Vintage Computer Federation a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit evan@vcfed.org (646) 546-9999 www.vcfed.org facebook.com/vcfederation twitter.com/vcfederation instagram.com/vcfederation
I know they take Logos very seriously you'll probably see a lot of huge shellacked masterpieces with moving parts etc. Bill On Thu, Jun 22, 2017 at 6:31 PM, Evan Koblentz via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:

Will you wear a red and white stripped cap and shirt as well as blue pants so that you are easier to find? ;) On Thu, Jun 22, 2017 at 6:31 PM, Evan Koblentz via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:

Make sure you take lots of pictures of your stuff and the other exhibits. On Thu, Jun 22, 2017 at 6:31 PM, Evan Koblentz via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:
