Over a hundred thousand attendees at the event,

Friday and Saturday I met old and new friends at the show - CBM engineer Bill Seiler, CBM Lenard Tramiel, Mark who worked in technical support for CBM Canada, Evie Salomon who is working on a new C= cartridge, June "Nybbles & Bytes" who does C128 Youtube videos, FCUG's Ricardo Quesada who has developed UniJoysticle 2, and others from the Sacramento Amiga Computer Club. Very nice for them to come by the exhibit!
