I'm very proud to announce the first version of the Vintage Computer
Festival in Europe!
VCF 1.0e is scheduled for April 29-30 in Munich, Germany. Our beloved
Hans Franke is the primary organizer of the event. I will be attending
the event as well so I look forward to (hopefully) meeting a lot of you
European computer collectors.
The initial web site for VCF 1.0e is up but is currently only implemented
in German. Complain to Hans.
http://www.vintage.org/europa
I hope Hans will find the time in his busy schedule to translate the site
to about 7 other languages, but maybe someone can help him out. I think
you silly Europeans should just adopt English already but I guess that's a
flame war waiting to explode so I won't say anything (ooops :)
Please send all flames and offers of assistance to Hans Franke at
<hans.franke_at_mch20.sbs.de>.
Unfortunately I know little about the event with regards to location,
admission, etc. Hans has been doing all of the organization and we
haven't been coordinating very well. All that information is on the
website but I can't read much German yet unfortunately. My end of the
bargain is to learn German fluently enough to give a 45 minute talk at the
event. So at some point I should be able to read the pages. For now I
remain an Ugly American. Oh well.
I hope to see you there! It will be a BLAST!
