Count me out. I thought the idea was to educate and, perhaps, enlighten the public about the history and roots of computing. If it's video games they're wanting, send them to the boardwalk arcades. If it's iPHone, send them up to the Apple Store at the Freehold Raceway Mall. If it's WEENDOZE, why? That's just my not to humble opinion!
