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 (and VIC!)-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. Facebook users can visit here for more details.

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 for more details about their event.

We hope to see you there!

I'll most likely be there. Should be a good time!

I'm so torn! My birthday is the day before (and I have to work on my birthday!). I'm pretty sure I'll be there, but I may have to leave earlier than I want.

I always assumed the 31 Dec 1969 was your birthday.

I think that's the default date for phpbb message boards. Before I set the clock. I never bothered to change it.

Great to see you again Jeff, if only for a few minutes! I got the note you left on my VIC...

I left the hardware I borrowed on your table (thanks again!), but I don't recall leaving a note. It was great to see everyone if only for a second. I would've stayed a lot longer, but I didn't really have much of a choice. Sigh.

I had a great time. Lots of interesting presentations this year.

Here's a link to some of the photos I took:

Nothing too exciting. Based on the photos, it seems I was more interested in the individual computers rather than the event itself.
