[vcf-midatlantic] The Swap Meet was great!

[Gregg Levine]

Hello!
It was indeed well organized. The first item I bought was a board
containing an astonishing 1 Megabyte of Magnetic Bubble Memory. (One
item rescued from the barbarian hordes known as the scrappers.). the
next two were assorted networking items, actually three.

Now to find a good application for the Power-Line networking devices,
and hope my apartment is properly wired!

Mike did you see a chap wandering about wearing a dark hoodie and a
green cap and wearing a knapsack that might have been used for
carrying stuff, and a Husky tool bag? That was me.
