JohnBuell Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 The seventh Vintage Computer Festival Midwest (and the third to be held in Lombard) is now officially taking place September 22nd and 23rd. The location is the same, Heron Point in Lombard, next to the Fairfield Inn and Suites. The show will be taking place, also for the third year, alongside the Emergency Chicagoland Commodore Convention.

Retro Rogue Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 It's not a huge show, but a small show with good turnout and group of people. It's combined with the ECCC show as well. http://www.flickr.com/photos/chiclassiccomp/sets/72157624874473629/with/5009695912/ http://www.thegoggle...midwest_6.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBuell Posted July 13, 2012 Author Share Posted July 13, 2012 There are two large conference rooms and a cafe. The Commodore group gets the largest of the conference rooms, since it was originally 'their' show. But if you watch the slideshow, you'll see that many other computer manufacturers are well represented. Speakers present, and sometimes movies and videos are shown in one side of the cafe - in each of the last two years the Atari and Tandy CoCo groups took up the other half.
