          You know what would be really neat? :)

          If we could convince some of the original "Commodore-ians" to come 
visit for the show.

          It would be neat to talk to guys like Bob Russell, Bill Herd, Dave 
Haynie, etc about anything Commodore.  :)

If you decide to include Amiga's,  it would be neat to see those CD32 
motherboard based AGA Amigas that where being advertised late 2004 early 
2005.

I could provide an A1200 for this display.

How about peripherals too?  It would be neat to see a 1572 drive.
