Truly,

Yes, never a big fan of the Commodore 'sticker' :lol: Much prefer a stamped plate or something more elegant, but I guess it's better than nothing, and if only for identification purposes.

Right. We at the Fresno Commodore User Group have many monitors in storage, and if you are in California (Los Angeles area, Central Valley, San Francisco area), we could probably get a monitor to you.

Heh, for the PC box of my CommodoreOne, I've considered going to a local trophy shop and have a metal badge (in relief) made for it. I just haven't done it yet. :)

That's actually a great idea! Would give anything that perfect, finishing touch :D

Is this the CommodoreOne, Robert?

Yes, that's the board! I haven't taken a picture of it with its Antec PC case.

Very interesting piece of technology there! I hadn't heard of it before, but after a little reading on what it is, well, all I can say is, very impressive!

I may just have to add that to my wish list. :D

The C1 makes an appearance at CommVEx every year. It'll probably be at the show again this year! :)

I wish I was somewhat closer, as I would definitely come to the show! I've seen highlights from some of the previous shows, and it definitely looks like a great weekend of fun!

Oh, it's very fun for the attendees (less fun for me, because I have to do all the coordination). :) But you have the World of Commodore Show every December...

That's true :D , but can there ever be 'enough' Commodore shows to enjoy? And yes, I definitely can imagine that you would have your hands full, coordinating an event like that, but hopefully you have a bit of help, that allows you to enjoy some of your hard work!

There can never be enough!

My right-hand man was absent at last year's CommVEx, so there was more pressure on me than ever. There was a first-time left-hand man helping me out last year, but it was a bit too much for him as a newbie.

Hopefully, more smooth-going this year,

I'm sure your hard work will pay of, but regardless, best of luck on this year's show Robert, and I look forward to reading about it in the near future!
