I would very much enjoy seeing Altairs, IMSAIs, and SWTPC kit celebrated next year.  I know for sure people would enjoy having the opportunity to get hands on with a front panel, see what they're all about on such an important machine like an 8800 or 8080.  Regardless, it's something that could stand a few examples of from multiple exhibitors, each putting their own flair on it, if they are both willing and able.

Seeing photos of VCF East VIII (one I was unable to attend) reminds me of why I try so hard to be at so many of these events.  So many cool exhibits I missed...

Good grief.  That was twelve years ago...
