Happy Friday!  I'm wearing my DEC PDP-inspired design t-shirt from the Vintage Computer Festival Midwest last weekend!

I was amazed to see a working Apple I at the festival - signed by Woz!

I even got to play a C64 game using a DIY wireless controller glove!

And I discovered this groovy 70s briefcase that HP salemen used to demo the latest and greatest LED display!

    Truly great shirt!  Reminds me of the old days toggling in the RIM loader image

    Hi Drew,

     

    Looks like a fun time.

     

    You should see my original Commodore PET 2001 I purchased in 1977.

    Sadly it no longer works.  It turns out that the memory chips short out and destroy the 7805 voltage regulators and I have not bothered with it since the last one blew.

     

    Keep posting pictures, I really like to see what people are doing at these events.

     

    Thanks

    DAB
