Just thought I'd give you all a short report on the PNW coco-fest I attended
over the weekend. A good time was had by all!

I'm not sure of the exact number of attendees, but I figure there were about
75. About the same as last year.

Chris Burke was there with his Rocket. I understand that he is going ahead with
this and will ship in the early fall. This should be a neat way for folks to
get into 68K for very little (the board with OSk and 1meg memory is under
$300).

There were some other vendors there too (including BVDP Software ). Don't
know how well anyone did.

Oh, and someone had a KIX20 there too. Looks like a nice toy. Unfortunately,
FHL hadn't yet sent out the the video board so he was running it on a coco set
up as a terminal. FHL told the owner that the video board would be coming RSN.

Folks were there from Alaska, Georgia, California, and all around the PNW. I
enjoyed it and look forward to the next one.
