Well, my plans are finally in place and Philly is pretty much a go at this point. So I will be back to fulfill all your red beard and auctioneering needs. :D

 

I'm hoping to run a Pac-Man VS. tourney this year. Who'd be up for that?

Hey all! Just wanted to let you know that this here n00b will be at PhillyClassic. It will be my first East Coast classic gaming experience -- I moved from the West Coast to the East Coast about a year ago. I'm looking forward to meeting you all, and I hope you won't point and laugh at me too much.  :D

 

 

Hey guys....look at this noob...hehehehehehehehehehehehehe!!!

 

Look at him lol lol lol :lol: To bad he cant see us pointing at him :P

 

Great, you guys. Ha ha. I was going to bring my stash of Air Raid carts and hand them out for free to my new AtariAge forum buddies -- but now you can just forget it. :P

Philly has become the excuse for my annual jaunt across the Atlantic, so looking forward to seeing everyone from last year again and meeting some new folks :D

 

Glad to hear you'll be able to make the trip again! And to think, I haven't even been to Europe once! Or even UK, for that matter. ;)

For those who have been to the Phillyclassic before, which is the better hotel: the Radisson or the Scanticon? I made reservations for the Radisson. Are both hotels connected to the convention center?

 

They're both nice, but I think the Scanticon is a bit more expensive.

The Scanticon sounds like the name for an X-rated TransFormer.

I stayed at the macintosh in once and that was real close to the convention center. I really liked the macintosh cause it was very clean and they had a continental breakfast... Not a big breakfast only a few thing but still it was a very pleasent place to stay ;)

Hi all,

 

I usually try to "theme" out each time I bring the Atari Museum out to the public, so instead of just showing the same old things each year I try to see to it, different items and different presentations are done to keep it interesting...

 

This year I was going to focus on showing off how Atari programmers actually created games.... so I was going to bring out some of the original modified 800 computers, an S-100 system with a bunch of custom Atari boards to simulate 2600 and 5200 systems inside (which will be setup in a showcase fashion so everyone can see) and I was considering hauling out one of Atari's actual CED mainframes which (accidentally rolled out the backdoor during the sale of the company in 84') has been sitting in a programmers garage all these years but is working again and I thought would be nice to showcase for showgoers to see...

 

Just wanted to get everyones feedback, is this presentation something everyone would like to see this year, I only have 40 some-odd days to prepare the museum for the show.

 

 

 

Curt
