[J.Gordon Beattie, Jr., W2TTT]

Hi Folks!
A friend of mine, forwarded this information about the Trenton Computer Fest
in two weeks.  

If there is interest in attending, I am willing to drive.  

Robotics, computers and a lot of other interesting presentations will be
made, so please let me know and we can get an EARLY start in the morning in
two weeks.

 

Yours in Scouting!

Thanks & 73,

Gordon Beattie, W2TTT

To All,

In case anyone is interested in meeting up at the show.  I've attached the
schedule of events.  My plan is to arrive at 9am for the flea market, then
attend the Android Development forum until noon.  After that, I'm open to
suggestions.  

I haven't been to a TCF for probably 5 or 6 years.  It should be fun even
though it's not quite as big as it was back in its heyday.

Mike
