  • Pacific Commodore Expo NW 2023 - June 24-25

    From Robert Bernardo@3:770/3 to All on Sun Oct 23 12:22:16 2022
    Hurrah! The Pacific Commodore Expo NW is returning to the Living Computers: Museum + Labs in Seattle, Washington, USA, on June 24-25, 2023. Yesterday we received confirmation for the show. Expect lots of Commodores and Amigas at the LCM: M + L on those
    days!

    Gotta update the PaCommEx website,

    Ack! I just received an update on the venue. PaCommEx will NOT be at the LCM: M + L! It will be at the "Interim" Computer Museum at 3100 Airport Way S in Seattle, Washington.

    Two weeks to go and I've started gathering all the Commodore and Amiga computers and peripherals for the long drive to Seattle. My station wagon will be stuffed! :)

    This is it! Set-up day is today from 4:30 p.m. to 7 p.m.., tomorrow from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.. Our room will be stuffed with 25 to 30 exhibits with computers ranging from Commodore 8-bit machines to Amigas (including a Sam440) to even a Nabu PC! The
    presentations are set, though the door prizes are in a state of flux. Whether ready or not, PaCommEx officially starts tomorrow (Saturday) at 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. when we head off to dinner. Hey, if people want to spend more time on Saturday after 5 p.
    m. at the show, we can do that! We repeat on Sunday but must close on time at 5 p.m., because another party will be coming in that evening.

    Wow! It was a very successful PaCommEx! Lots of happy Commodorians and Amigans! Thanks to all the supporting clubs which came to the show -- the Puget Sound Commodore User Group, the Seattle Commodore Computer Club, the Seattle Retro-Computing Society,
    and the Portland Commodore User Group. Big thanks to SDF.org for funding the show and to the Old Rainier Brewery for the use of their Intraspace.

    Photos and videos to come later,
