Nothing special. Mostly having a presence there to promote VCF West and VCF Montreal with cards, pamphlets, etc. I will have some "modern retro" reproductions such at TheC64, The64mini, TheA400mini. I was hoping that someone could bring TheA500. Basically what can fit into a plane's bag. I'm not driving so I can't bring anything original. I will also be selling swag there including this year's t-shirt. A lot have asked that I bring these to sell. I'm hoping that some local people that are driving can bring some items for me there. I would do more, but I ran out of time. I will have more time to get an exhibit ready for World of Commodore. There I want to do GEOS exhibit of BASIC vs. TO THE MAX. One setup will be the basic configuration with floppy drives and standard ram with a second setup being a souped up version with WheelsOS with SuperCPU with 16MB RAM. For me VCF MidWest is a Mecca where many come from East, West and South. I can meet, network and connect with so many from all over. What are you bringing?

I'm going and will be exhibiting even more ENIAC simulation goodies. In particular, it'll include the 3d projector display with improved graphics, a first-person video game like interface, and support for Jeri Ellsworth's Tilt Five AR system. BLS
You can find me at the Windows 95 exhibit, near the other folks from the Retrotech Crew. I'm curious to see what this new venue is like, since I didn't go in 2024. Looking forward to Galloping Ghost, Portillos, and of course seeing a bunch of the friends that I haven't crossed paths with for 2 years. See y'all there! -Alexander 'Z' Pierson On Tuesday, September 2, 2025 at 07:16:55 PM EDT, Brian L. Stuart <blstuart@bellsouth.net> wrote:

Not that it isn't obvious, but a large contingent of us Midwesterners will be there. Jim -- RETRO Innovations, Contemporary Gear for Classic Systems www.go4retro.com store.go4retro.com
I will be there! No particular plans other than worrying about buying something that I can’t reasonably fly home with. :) -- Jameel Akari

All, I will be attending VCF MidWest. Looking forward! Will be my first time. I help with VCF SoCal and run the retro computing websites http://atariprojects.org and http://retroprojects.org .

I will be there. My first midwest. When I worked for Pandora Music I would work travel to Chicago once in a while for a datacenter visit. Would hit up the arcade places. Galloping Ghost, Logan Hardware, HQ Beercade, 257, etc. MOSI was cool as well. Good food spots. Guess I should book a flight.
I will be there for my first VCF Midwest! I am looking forward to the experience. I am not taking anything but a little space if I find something to bring back. Thanks -Ryan

Will there be anyone doing electronics or CRT repairs during VCF? I have a Commodore 1802 monitor with a non-working composite video input (monochrome input seems to works fine.) Josh
By Shear dumb luck, I’ve been scheduled to go to a medical conference in Chicago next Friday. I set my return flight to Saturday evening. I should be free sometime Friday afternoon (Not positive of the time yet) and I’ll be glad to help out if I can. I will need to leave at around 5 o’clock on Saturday to catch my flight, but considering I didn’t even think I was going, that’s a bonus! I arrive Thursday afternoon, so if anyone’s around Please let me know. On Thu, Sep 4, 2025 at 5:49 PM Josh Knight via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
