I went to the Vintage Computer Festival East last month, - here's some of the cool stuff I saw...

A wild @Recta_Pete appears (well, his display does) and is greatly appreciated by LGR.

Noticing a couple of items I sold via #VCFEast consignment on eBay for way more that I sold them.

I don't mind, it's just amusing.

Okay, if I can't sell my CGA monitor at a reasonable price I might try to make this adapter (was trying to sell my monitor/video-7 card/JCM-1 RGB adapter at #VCFEast consignment, but only the adapter sold). Moving soonish, so I'm slowly parting with things I would otherwise keep.

Side by side view of my two Epson LX-80 dot matrix printers. The one on the right I got free at #VCFEast really needs a good cleaning before I'll start testing it.

I was happy to see @polpo again at #VCFEast2025. He had a Polaroid 100 land camera loaded with pack film. He shot this picture of me at my #PenPlotter exhibit. I fell so lucky that he used a shot on me— I’ll never forget. Thank you!

Back from a whirlwind of a weekend. Thank you to all that stopped by my #PenPlotter exhibit table at #VCFEast this year. Was great to meet so many folks in person. And a huge thank you to all that purchased plots and floppies at consignment.

I gave away lots of postcards this year. If you got a plot or postcard, reply with a picture!

I have to say that seeing a Bendix G-15 in the metal flesh is even more fun after seeing all those Usagi Electric YT videos!

Thanks to everyone that stopped by my #AtariST exhibit at #VCFEast this weekend! I hope I was able to talk to you a bit. I get so overwhelmed at times but it is always fun.

I carried my Polaroid 100 around #VCFEast and had a blast taking photos of old stuff and people with their exhibits. I gave out most of the shots I took but here are a couple that made it back with me!

Had a BLAST at #vcfeast today, the expanded show, the bigger consignment space, crazy cool exhibits and not to mention the other #infoage museum spaces are just getting better and better! Two of three nephews went and didnt even whine to go home (they actually loved it).

I love this plywood folly at @BigBadBiologist 's table. It's practical and looks weird in a good way - meaning it's just a about perfect.

Played Hunt the Whumpus on a Univac 1219 at #vcfeast ! Of course I fell into a cave on my FIRST MOVE which is highly improbable but hilarious. #retrocomputing #vcfeast2025

My table at #VCFEast - well, my table at consignment anyway. Multiple people (like me) brought stuff this evening, so there will be new things to buy tomorrow (it's been difficult resisting, there was a lot of cool stuff today and I expect I'll take a look again tomorrow).

I do feel a bit sad of letting that Tandy CM-5 go, I hope someone will have fun using it.
