BigBadBiologist<p>Like I need another project before <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/VCFEast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VCFEast</span></a>. Decided to restore a couple keyboards…</p>

Peter Fletcher<p>I’ve done a systems check on everything that I am bringing to <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/VCFEast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VCFEast</span></a> for Bill Lange and my <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/AtariST" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AtariST</span></a> 40th birthday exhibit. Not too many hiccups and the layout will change a bit as we incorporate Bill’s STE into the exhibit, but I am happy with the initial attempt.</p>

Peter Fletcher<p>Started doing a trial <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/VCFEast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VCFEast</span></a> booth layout today. I always find this bit more stressful than it needs to be.</p>

Peter Fletcher<p>2025 will be the 40th anniversary of the <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/AtariST" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AtariST</span></a>. Though I often find exhibiting at <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/VCFEast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VCFEast</span></a> exhausting, I am likely the best suited to doing just that for the ST. </p><p>I'll try to talk myself into it before sign ups begin later this year.</p>

VCF Actual<p>VCF is looking for a new bumper to add to the front and back of all videos from East 2024.<br>There are 7 different versions.

Peter Fletcher<p>Finally got around to importing the pictures I took with my <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/Apple" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Apple</span></a> QuickTake 200 at <a href="https://oldbytes.space/tags/VCFEast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VCFEast</span></a> 2024. The image quality is a bad as I remember. Here are a few examples.</p>
Josh Justice<p>I'm finally confident enough about which specific machines to include in my <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/VCFSoutheast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VCFSoutheast</span></a> "Road to Mac OS X" table that I've started putting together the… I dunno what to call them. Printed out museumy signs with info on the machine and OS, and a QR code to get more info. It's pretty exciting! Definitely feels like an exhibit worth bringing to <a href="https://bitbang.social/tags/VCFEast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VCFEast</span></a> 2025 too.</p>
