A Festival of Vintage Computers
Where do old computers go to die? We’re not sure, but we do know where the digital old folks home is. We take a trip down the valley to Mountain View for the 2007 Vintage Computer Festival. We happily discover 8-bit wonders living life as if it were 1980 all over again. We find Commodore PETs and SuperPETs, Atari 400 & 800s, Tandy TRS-80s, Sols, Altairs, Data Generals, HPs and even a LINC from 1962.

Paul: I was surprised not to see a Sinclair as well! Either they haven’t withstood the test of time or they were so small and inconspicuous that I missed them!

This is certainly one of the more appealing websites I have seen. It is so easy to tune out, but there is seriously some terrific stuff out there, and I think your site is one of them!
