Hi Michael.
I can tell you that in the eight years we've been doing the VCF and across
the 14 events we've done, we've never had any problems at all with theft.
With regards to the VCF's held at the Computer History Museum, the
exhibits stay overnight in a locked, secured museum. Attendees are only
allowed in the exhibit area during exhibit hours, which is also when the
exhitors are in there. The only people allowed in there during off hours
are other exhibitors and VCF/Museum staff.
We also have minders hanging out in the hall during open exhibit hours.
You needn't worry about security.
