Vintage Computer Festival Europe 9.0 - 26/27 April 2008

[cas]

The ninth annual European Vintage Computer Festival awaits you!

 

Our mission is to encourage the preservation of obsolete computer hard- and software of years past, to promote interest in researching and documenting the history of the computer age ... and to have fun playing with old iron.

 

The Vintage Computer Festival is not only a fixed entry in the Silicon Valley timetable, but it has also become a European event, celebrating our computer heritage.

 

Let us return to those thrilling days of yesteryear, when geeks were geeks and floppies were really floppy.
