[vcf-midatlantic] Announcing the AppleII Classroom *ALL THREE DAYS* at VCF East 2020

[Adam Michlin]

For the record, I'll be switching to the IBM PC side for VCF East 2021 
and working with Dean to create the IBM exhibit to end all exhbits (IBM 
PC 40 years!!) so we can both laugh at the mere Apple IIs *and* C64s.

Yeah, I know. I am a mercenary with no loyalties! I'm OK with that!
