Couple of photos before the Pacific Commodore Expo NW 2026

Friday, June 19, was set-up day for PaCommEx 2026.  I arrived just after 4 p.m. and stayed until 9 p.m. in order to set up the room and the hardware.  Alone for the first 2 hours, I was joined by Stephen Jones of the Interim Computer Museum, who helped connect all of my gear.  Without his help, I would have been there longer!

My Commodore/Amiga gear done. Now waiting for others.

Some source code from Busted Boulders for the C128

We commiserate over those who have passed during the year.

All slides/short animations done in Scala

Aw, a couple cancelled out.

Thanks to those who did present, though!


I should ask for this and convert it to .MP4.


Entries included 4 .MODS, 2 IFF's, 1 Wild, and 1 C64 demo.

C128 game, Busted Boulders, is a Breakout-style game.

The colors don't display well in the camera shot.

3 bouncing balls look more like oblongs, due to camera slowness.
