Well, there are always the door prizes. In fact, this year we had too many door prizes, and at the end we were just giving them to virtually everyone.

I have been corrected... the unnamed guest above is a big-name *Commodore/Amiga* engineer.

Though he previously had stated at FCUG meetings that he would not be able to attend CommVEx this year due to his cross-country trip, Dick Estel of GeoFont Compendium fame, may stop by for a day. No promises.

Plans are still in flux for this... whether it is a pre-recorded video/Skype presentation or a live telephone call-in. The big name is (drum roll)...
Chuck Peddle, CBM engineer, father of the personal computer

Bil Herd wants a *live* Skype presentation, saying that Chuck Peddle would have no problem with that. So, I will contact the hotel and get a fast connection into the CommVEx room. Also, I'll get a hardwire telephone connection, just in case.

Due to Andrew having to serve military duty for the next several months, his presentation on the Lt. Kernal hard drive will be on video.
