The Vintage Computing Federation hold a number of events. This year’s VCF East festival will be of interest to fans of webOS phones, tablets and other computing devices of the past.
The festival is held at the InfoAge Science Center, 2201 Marconi Rd., Wall, New Jersey, 07719 and runs over three days from the 12th to 14th of April. The festival includes three elements:
- Exhibition of various old computer systems – some with modifications to function in the modern environment.
- A programme of talks and discussion.
- Sales of devices and other collectables.
For readers of this blog, representation of webOS devices will be in two of those areas. Jon W of the webOS Archive is attending over the weekend and will give a 50 minute talk at 900am on Saturday the 13th. The consignment shop will have a small selection of webOS devices for those who are interested.
So if you are in the area, why not go along?
