The Vintage Computer Federation was invited to exhibit, so I brought along a couple Model 33 Teletypes and a DECwriter, and others exhibited various Unix machines ranging including AT&T 3B1 and 3B2, DEC PDP-11, IBM Portable PC and RS6000, Apple Lisas, Commodore 64, Tandy and Sun boxes, several Raspberry Pi family devices, and more.

The other one was connected to the PC running Xenix (although mechanical teething probelms interrupted the fun later in the day... this is a newly-refurbished unit and still has several gunky deteriorated springs that need to be replaced).
