Canberra Vintage Computer Exhibition 2024 - ChickenMan - 18-05-2024
Well, its on again this year on Saturday 29th June at the Radford College Canberra. Held this year in a larger hall at Radford so will be much larger than last year with over 100 different Retro computers. The area will be divided up by Decades with the 80's the largest, as expected.
A few more coming from Victoria this year and even from South Australia and Brisbane as well as Sydney. I will be there with a few Microbee from the early Kit 'bee to the 256TC as well as my System 80 with Expansion unit and period Monitor. Will also have my working Amust Executive 816 and I might even take my Excalibur 64 as there seems to be some interest in it of late. To get a feeling of whats being on display, and recorded today, check out -
So hope to see all the NSW and Canberra members there at least. More information here -

Located in Radford College Morison Centre (updated!) will be the Canberra Vintage Computer Exhibition 2024!
This year take a walk decade by decade to see iconic machines from the 1960s to the early 2000s! All functional (handle with care) and running games and software from their respective eras!
There will also be modern enhancements on some machines. See what the passionate maker community are doing the enhance these machines today!
This year we'll also have game consoles, DooM deathmatch LAN, and music composition running on period and modern systems!

Yeah that writing was just a bunch of dots. Copy/pasting them into Notepad showed the text correctly.

Sorry guys, I just did a cut and paste, hopefully better now

Lots of machines I had never seen in the flesh or at least not for a long time...unfortunately no 2650-based ones, maybe I should set one up next year :-)
I noticed half the machines seemed to be running the "Ladder" game, I assume they were yours :-D
