cool to see an LGR in pretty good condition
it's so cool to see David, Clint and ken in the same building, my favorite tech UA-camrs.
I can literally FEEL the heat coming off of all these old CRT's just watching the video....;)
wow wow wow all guys pro lgr & 8bit pc retro .. i wish i was there and UA-cam, let me like this video twice :))
Thanks!
Almost forgotten about Ben Heck, miss the old show he had with Element14 still remember the episodes he made of that elusive Playstation SNES add-on that he helped repair back to functional order. Lot of other great retro tech tubers here, many that I've watched for years, glad to see them all organizing an event together and I wish I was in the area to of gone over there. Love the overview of the festival and I'm interested in seeing which others you attend in the future c:
Thanks!
Oh man, do I want those Atari ST's SO badly! LOVED my ST when I had it back in the late 80's! Fantastic computer! And of all the computers I have owned since 1982, the Atari ST is the one I miss the most!
Another good thing about Atari ST's is they are much easier to find on the used market in the United States than Amigas.
@@computerhobbyists3070 I have been looking, and I am getting pretty close to pulling the trigger on one or two of them. What an incredible computer!
I saw a number of computers in the video that could tell the story of my life. The one I miss the most is the SGI Indigo^2 that sat on my desk at work 25 years ago. That was a fantastic machine.
⚡ bolt bay
people taking pictures with their $500 mobile phones that have like 10x times the computing power of those massive risc-unix-based SGIs that were sold for $50,000+ back in the 90s.We've come a looooong way
Sorry I'm missing out this year, thanks for sharing your video of the event!
You're welcome! I hope you can make it next year!
11:15 that is beautiful! The darling computer is fully cased and ready.
I can't wait until they start selling them. Right now I'm using the Commander X16 emulator.
Clint AND 8-bit Guy? The naughty fanfics write themselves!
Thanks for the coverage of my table at 6:51 , great video, I love the commentary! Awesome!
You're welcome!
I owned that model of printer at 0:24 seeing it brings back a lot of very loud memories!
Interesting stuff. Looks like all the main Retro Dudes were there!! :)
''Back when I was in my 20s'' lol... I was just a tiny bab when most of this stuff came out. Wish I was there... what a show!
Saw most of my garage & basement in this video. Time for Computer Reset North!
That Mera 7951 OM is a Polish-made intelligent terminal which is based on the design of the Entrex terminal next to it. The "Mera-Snake" game is being served by a Pi Pico.
14:23 Sinclair QL, a 68008 based machine with a funky high speed tape drive instead of disks.
Cool to see Clint there
It was a very good time!
Great vid. So much retro tech!
Thanks!
Does the hard disk work in that Kaypro 10?
I see some military stuff at 4:53...
So, Do they have a computer festival in the southeast? I live near Memphis, TN and would love to attend if there was one my region of the country!
Yes, they do. vcfed.org/events/otherevents/vintage-computer-festival-southeast/
Thanks for the walk-through.
11:10 The Commander X16 is only a prototype.
This looks like so much fun! I wish I would have known about this and had the money to fly there. 🙂
wish i coulda went, i only live like 60 miles away... is it in the same place/general area each year?
Yes, it’s always at Waterford Banquets in Elmhurst.
Thanks for sharing. I wanted to attend this year, but it did not work out.
You're welcome!
Well it looks like almost a packed event...
thanks for more video from there
You're welcome!
If Quake is considered "vintage", I guess that makes me older than I'm willing to admit.
I didn't think there'd be a display of phones. I have a few vintage phones, myself.
Funny, I have a few of those in my closet....
God even I remember E machines and I am 22, a gateway pentium III .
I'm sure I saw you there as was I.... lol
Maybe try doing commentary over your footage. This was just random shots of old computer stuff. Dime a dozen on UA-cam.
💯

This event should be more centrally located in the U.S. I nominate the state of Kansas, maybe even Kansas City.
