BIOS has posted two videos of the Sept. 12-13 Vintage Computer Festival East 6.0. The first is a look at the activities which include an excerpt of the 8static Chip Tune Concert held there, a look around the exhibit hall at the various computers (including Commodore and Amiga), various attendees trying out Shredz64 (Guitar Hero for the C64), an excerpt from Evan Koblentz's talk on Computer Development and the U.S. Army Evans Signal Laboratory, the full presentation given by Bill Degnan on the evolution of local computer clubs in the 1970's and early 1980's, and more.
