Sorry for a wider distribution than I wanted, but there is no way to distribute it on a State by State basis. I wanted Atari owners in states neighboring on Illinois to know that we are having an all Atari Swap Fest on Sunday, April 22. This is not a full blown Atarifest, just a local swap fest, but there will be some developers there and several dealers. Bob Brodie is even tentatively scheduled to be there. The full announcement follows. Kit Kimes AT&T Bell Labs Naperville, IL ...!att!iwtsa!kimes ===================================================================== Lake County Atari Computer Enthusiasts and MilAtari LTD. have finalized plans for Midwest Atari SwapFest '90 to be held Sunday, April 22, 1990 from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. The event will be held at The Diplomat, 5572 Grand Avenue (IL 132), 1/4 mile east of I-94. The Diplomat is part of the new Gurnee Days Inn complex near the main entrance to the Great America theme park. The location is approximately 40 mins from both Milwaukee and Chicago via Interstate 94. Expected in attendance will be at least 10 area vendors offering Atari-related Import and Domestic software, Hardware, and accessories. Representatives of the local Atari User Groups; GRACE (Chicago), RACC, (Rockford), SCAT (West Suburban Chicago), and the hosts, MilAtari LTD (Milwaukee) and LCACE (Chicago Northern Suburbs) will be on hand. The groups will have Public Domain software, and used hardware and software for sale. An invitation has been extended to Mr. Bob Brodie, Atari Corp. Coordinator of User Group Activities. Bob plans to give a presentation, and will show "whatever he can get his hands on" in the way of new products from Atari. General admission to Midwest Atari SwapFest '90 will be $2.00 if purchased in advance through one of the above mentioned user groups. Admission the day of the event will be $3.00. The admission includes entrance to all seminars and a chance at door prizes. The latest Fest '90 information will be posted on the LCACE Club BBS (708-680-5105)

Thanks, Kit, for posting a notice of the Swap Fest!
I would like to add that Bob Brodie is no longer (just) tentatively
scheduled to attend - he confirmed in conference on Delphi last week
that _he will be there_. (I also asked him what he will be showing:
he said: Portfolio, Stacy, STE, but probably not TT. Maybe he will be
able to bring one anyway - but TT or not, the SwapFest should be interesting.
One more thing - Bob Brodie is scheduled to give a presentation (talk?) at
10:30 am and again at 1:30 pm, according to the latest news I've seen.
