Had a guy named Russ Balliet drop off a sales training tape for AT&T PC as well as a selling guide for AT&T PC 6300. There was also an operations manual for Inspector IV MPC and a little card for RCA Spectra 70. He told me a story how he helped Johnson and Johnson help recover some data from an "old" Vax that helped with a cure for a particular type of cancer. He didn't have any deals, he was just some guy who had experience with Vax who helped the programmer there retrieve "old" data. Had a family come by with a kid who gave them his own version of the tour. This 12 year old kid took Evan's sign at the front of the museum literally "Attention children! The stuff in this room is veeeeeeeery fragile. So we've got a special assignment just for kids: Make sure your parents don't touch any of it!" So this kid said to his parents, "You can't touch anything, but I can touch everything!". I guess the message backfired ;) Anyway the parents and kid were highly interested and I helped the kid do some simple BASIC programs on the C64 and helped him with a few other computers. They really enjoyed it. I hope that they come for VCF East. Another group came escorted by Fred with a guy who used to be in the Civil Air Patrol. I highlighted different machines that he was interested such as Gorge, MOBIDIC etc. It was a quicker tour because of time, but they were very interested. Jonas printed out the signs for exhibitors and I tested his Vic-20. It will need repairs at the next workshop. -- Jeff Brace - ark72axow@gmail.com Sent from my Commodore 64
