This is an expo put on by SWRAP, and was held on September 4 in Chicago. It was a real eye-opener for me, as it was the first of these events I'd been to. Click any picture for a larger image.
 This is a KIM owned by Jack Rubin, who gave a fascinating talk on these devices, intended as prototypes for developers to learn the 6502 processor with. |
Here's a rare glimpse of the C65 prototype (a Commodore that was never produced commercially). |
Here's an outrageously tricked-out SX-64 that was playing audio CDs using a GEOS app. |
This is the project to clone a SuperSnapshot cartridge, by Adrian. |
Leif Bloomquist's stylishly detailed 64C. Connected to the expansion port is a CARDBOARD/5 (see my hardware page), with a SuperSnapshot, a CLD Super 1750 Clone, a RetroReplay, and an IDE64. The board in the user port was for Leif's demo (see next picture). |
Leif's demo of a radio-controlled toy truck that he operated with the joystick of a 64C using a board he put together. |
A game of Modem Wars, played over an Ethernet connection. |
Steve Judd rolls out his new programming language, Slang, which requires a SuperCPU and SuperRAM. |
Six of Style shows his colors. |
Six gave a demo of a TCP/IP packet analyzer he wrote (you can see the RR-Net Ethernet board attached to the RetroReplay cartridge sticking out of the top of the SX-64). |
Two other members of Style, WrongWay and Elwix. |
Jeri Ellsworth celebrated a birthday at the expo. |
Jim Brain, well known Commodore hacker and collector. |
