Photos of 4. VFCe in Munich
The Vintage Computer Festival Europe,
taking place this year for the 4th time and also opening tomorrow, is a
real pleasure for fans of old computers from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.
I'd had a look at the show today and made some photos that can be found
following the title link.
There were many computers to be seen and to be used by yourself in all
since the early sixties of the last century, from pure calculating
machines via the home computers of the eighties to workstations and
mainframes by Control Data and Cray Research. The last mentioned ones
can only be seen within an excursion about the
Projekt Cray-Cyber which is
very recommendable. To see a CDC 960 with NOS on it in action is an
absoloute highlight!
People living near Munich with at least a little interest for working
old computers shouldn't miss the VCFe - tomorrow the festival is opened
till 17.00 o'clock.
