sparkdrummer Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Okay, So I have been laboring over scanning my collection of VAST's newsletters that I have. I am only missing a few and I go clear back to the very first issue. Anyway, I've gotten to Volume 8 (1992) which contains newsletters about the Festwest we held here in Phoenix. So I have uploaded the Feb and Mar issues of VAST News. I hope you get some enjoyment out of them. Vast News 8 2.pdf Vast News 8 3.pdf As a side note, when I am done scanning all the issues I have, I would like them added to the WHT site for posterity so I will have to ask for someone here to do so for me probably. Speaking of newsletters - the TI club newsletters were always a major source of enjoyment for me to read every month. I probably gleaned more information from them than any other TI source. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airshack Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Extremely cool flashback Sparkdrummer! Hey, any chance the Computer & Electronics Swap Meet is still around in PHX? REF vol8/#3. I know of the famous Dallas, TX "First Saturday" swap meet each month: http://sidewalksale.com/ Apparently goes back to the 1960s as a Ham Radio swap meet turned computer deal. Any fellow AtariAgers have similar sales near their hometowns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkdrummer Posted October 23, 2016 Author Share Posted October 23, 2016 I think the swap meet is just a memory now. It was a good source at the time for 5.25 floppy drives and disks. All the pc boys were upgrading to 3.5 drives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparkdrummer Posted October 24, 2016 Author Share Posted October 24, 2016 I remember Rich. It was good to have you there, as well as others. Were you part of the TI standards meeting that was held? I didn't attend, I was too damn tired from helping run the thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
