Notes
VCFE has a Flea Market /
Valuable Old Junk Section ;-)
Probably most of us have heaps of old junk Ehrm valuable
stuff ;-) We'd like to sell buy & trade. My surplus
hardware is listed here,
I'd happily cross links to any other VCFE person's spare hardware list.
- 2014-05-03, Saturday I exhibited the Network Scanjet 5.
- There was a VCFE in
2011 - I wasn't in the country.
- There was a VCFE each
previous year, I've lost track which years I exhibited
& which not
- 30.April/01. Mai 2005 dont know if I was
there, plenty of others there.

2004
It's a 486 cpu inside, so pretty old, quite whether it
meets the vintage 10+ year rule I didn't have time to find
out. But it was a BSD implementation, & I traditionally
run a BSD stand there, & the "new & better software
in old hardware" theme was interesting, & made a change
from the Symmetric & PC532
2004, All My Pictures: 26 Megs worth, have been copied to
gaby.de, & will be used by them &/or maybe Hans to
help contribute to an official collection they will compile
& release later .. so Ive taken my 26M off line.
These are just my raw pictures, uploaded the day after, I
took them in a rush, abandoning my exhibition stand to do
them, & I fumbled some camera settings toward thje end,
mis-framed, got a few pictures between 2 stands etc.
To make the clickable icon page, I ran a tool called cthumb,
one of tens of
thousands of free packages ported packages available on
FreeBSD.
I've not bothered to label the photos, as the whole lot
will be deleted when { "Helmut Jungkunz"
jungkunz_ERASE@z80.de &/or Gaby etc merge with other
people's to make a cohesive indexed whole.
2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 I exhibited these
Symmetric
375 & PC532
Commentary to 2000
Perhaps the most interesting part was after the official
fest had finished: helping a VAX 750 down a flight of stairs, a
valve computer return to someone's front room, &
discovering a cellar full of room size computers, Univacs or
Honeywells or some such, with scatterings of PDP-11s &
paper punches & disc packs etc.
Promotion
Friends & technical associates from within other groups
such as BIM , MECC, BG, Faraday, SAGE etc, are
particularly encouraged to come along too, not just to see the
old equipment, but also to attend some of the talks, which have
been highly interesting, previously including the First
Microprocessor (no not an Intel, that was just first chip set
for commercial use; first microprocessor was for the F1-11
swing wing fighter!) & first Commodore Virus development
& others.
