Title: ECCC 2010 - Chicago, September 18
Post by: RobertB on August 24, 2010, 06:39 AM
The ECCC Expo is back, and just around the corner. The Chicago area's  long-running autumn tradition is technically being held in late summer this year, but don't let that get in the way of your enjoyment of a  marathon day of C64-focused fun.

ECCC 2010 will be held Saturday, September 18 2010. Doors open at 8 AM  at the Heron Point Building next to the Fairfield Inn and Suites in Lombard, IL. For more information on venue and accommodations ($64/night  hotel rooms!), please visit the ECCC homepage at  http://starbase.globalpc.net/eccc/. (http://starbase.globalpc.net/eccc/.)

As is ECCC tradition, admission is free, as is table space for exhibitors. Please contact the organizers to reserve space in advance when possible.

As a special treat, this year's ECCC is bigger than ever, and we are  sharing the extra space with the Vintage Computer Festival Midwest! See the VCFMW homepage at http://vcfmw.org (http://vcfmw.org) for more details about their event.

We hope to see you there!

I've made my hotel reservation, and will be there if my health allows.

How about you guys?

I'm going too.  I've got my hotel room and I've also gotten a table and presentation slot set up.

Not me.  I blew my summer money on two trips to the Pacific Northwest and one to the United Kingdom.

Would that be a presentation on CBM-Command?
