| Commodore Las Vegas Exposition 2006 | |||
|
The second annual Commodore Las Vegas Exposition (CommVEx) was held July 29 and 30 at the Plaza Hotel in Las Vegas. Over 30 Commodore fanatics from around the country attended, enjoying demonstrations, discussions, DVDs of pioneer Commodore developers, and just rubbing elbows with fellow diehards. In addition to door prizes, some very desirable Commodore goodies were awarded in the "big raffle," including an SX64, SuperCPU, DTV joystick, and Midi keyboard. Robert Bernardo, president of the Fresno Commodore User Group (FCUG), and Dick Estel, treasurer, captured the action and the faces on film. If you have any questions or comments, please send Email. |
