======Vintage Computer Festival Midwest======
====Background====
The Vintage Computer Festival Midwest is (as of this writing in 2025) the world's largest exhibition of vintage or classic computing hardware.  It is a celebration of the computer (as well as the odd telephone) each of us grew up with, coveted from afar or merely discovered and developed a passion for just last week.  It was founded at Purdue University in 2005 and is currently organized by the [[chicago_classic_computing|Chicago Classic Computing]] non-profit organization.  More info can be found at the [[https://vcfmw.org|show website]].
