Dayton ComputerFest, Hara Arena (site of the Hamvention), Dayton, Ohio,
Saturday and Sunday, August 25-26. Mostly new stuff, some flea-market
tables. Many fewer vendors on Sunday than Saturday. Big Amiga gathering
there. I've seen an Apple ][ LCD screen for sale there ($200), I bought
an Apple QuickTake camera ($35) and SCSI DAT drives ($5) and even the
occasional DEC cable there. It's hit or miss, not as nice as it used to
be, but what is?

Also in Dayton is Mendelson's, four floors of who knows what you'll find
there.

Do you know when you will be in Ohio? I still have the Farm and I'm happy to
extend my hospitality to you again if I'm around (got some vacation coming up
next month).
