My favorite part of VCFMW by far was giving random people random stuff for free, I gave away a box of zboards, a box of dot matrix paper, but by far my favorite part was sneaking random stuff on @freegeekchicago.bsky.social table😂 give them a follow and check out the amazing deals on their site!

VCFMW is a wrap! Had a great time and met a lot of cool people (Except for Jeff, Jeff wasn’t cool at all, he knows what he did) doing cool things. Our OS/2 museum was a hit and we got a lot of donations to help our mission. See you next year!
