    I often bring HP minicomputers to VCF. They're business, engineering, small 
and large company systems, and I try to show off software that people used 
back in the day. But, a certain percentage of our attendees want to see games, 
so I include a few. It's just a fact of modern life. It keeps a few more 
people interested in my exhibits.
