AlexTheCat123:
I'll be at Southwest along with @warmech! We normally bring 4 or 5 Lisas between the 2 of us.
bmwcyclist:
See you there!
I know these things are unpredictable, like garage sales, but is there likely to be any Lisa stuff in the swap meet?
AlexTheCat123:
It'll be nice to have another Lisa enthusiast there! Will you be exhibiting or just attending?
We can always wish, but it's not super likely. In the past two years that we've attended, we've been the only two people to exhibit any Lisa stuff whatsoever. There was one guy (Edgar Digital) who was selling a "broken" Lisa for a really reasonable price 2 years ago, and I bought it, but nothing even remotely Lisa-related last year. And funnily enough, it turns out that the Lisa wasn't even broken at all and he had just forgotten to bypass the interlock switches! I doubt there will be any Lisa stuff on the free table either; of course you never know what might happen, but I would consider that to be incredibly improbable.
bmwcyclist:
That's what I thought. I will hope for the best though!
I am flying in from Cincinnati, Ohio, to meet up with some of my friends from other parts of the country that I used to work with and share an interest in vintage tech, so I won't be presenting. I don't have anything worth presenting at this point so there is that...
Best I can do is wear a LISA T-Shirt....
