Any BYOAC members going?  I wouldn't mind meeting Mr. Baer.
If you don't know much about him I highly recommend reading Videogames: In The Beginning

I was the one who arranged for Ralph to attend, and I will be there for all four days.

I have attended the Funspot tournament for the last eight years.  It is my yearly escape from reality.  I have been referring to it for years as "Geek Week."  :)

It really is an amazing event attended by the best classic gamers in the world.
