The 12th annual European Vintage Computer Festival awaits you!

http://vcfe.org/E/

Our mission is to encourage the preservation of obsolete computer hard-
and software of years past, to promote interest in researching and
documenting the history of the computer age ... and to have fun playing
with old iron.

The Vintage Computer Festival is not only a fixed entry in the Silicon
Valley timetable, but it has also become a European event, celebrating
our computer heritage.

Let us return to those thrilling days of yesteryear, when geeks were
geeks and floppies were really floppy.

Every year the VCFe is themed on a special focus. This year's focus is:
Performance: Mine is Bigger!.

Performance comparisons are a never ending story since the very first
days of computing. An endless number of articles have been published,
not too few regarding the classic 6502 vs. Z80 battle. VCFe 12.0
features a unique Benchmark Competition:
