I hope to see you there.

While not sure if these will repeat for the Aug 22 faire and not exactly CoCo related, this could be of interest to some here (and living within a reasonable distance). Plus I am sure that they would welcome a Vintage Computer booth (or tables, as they call them) and any here and in the Chicago area are bold enough to want to display 8 bit technology.
