Jason got me this awesome SX-64 as a gift; I've always wanted one, and despite Jason warning me that I likely didn't really want one, he still got me one! It seems to work great too!
Thanks Jason!

Mini-Dragos' Art Sale
Date/Time: 2008:09:27 10:19:15
(Mark)Dragos' son makes these cool "fuse bead" 8-bit character art. Last year I requested Bruce Lee and "Bruce Lee's Fat Green Guy" - and they were there, so I got them (not pictured yet, but I'll take a shot of them soon)
ANyway, Drago's son was absent this year, so his sister took over sales and did a great job - I hear she broke her brother's sales record!

This is a picture of the famous feeding frenzy that Mike Hogan caused - yes the same one in which a SCPU w/superRAM was bought for about $150 (some say $160, some say $150 - I heard $150)
More feeding Frenzies
Date/Time: 2008:09:27 15:20:30
There was a LOT of stuff available at ECCC this year. Some vendors showed up late for various reasons, but it kept a constant stream of new stuff to browse over - "buy buy buy" was definitely a theme of the show.

Date/Time: 2008:09:27 15:25:52
Hogan auctions off the c64 game "Penetrator" - it was bundled with something else, but no one seems to remember what.

Lobby
Date/Time: 2008:09:28 14:10:27
The Lobby saw some use this year, although not as intense as other years. The theory is that everyone was too tired from buying so much. hehe

Here I am wearing Brain's crazy-wear-on-your-arm PS2 keyboard. It is actually a cool little keyboard, but we all agreed it would not help my chances of picking up chicks.
(not that anything _could_ improve my chances anyway!)

Date/Time: 2008:09:27 13:24:27
Saehn was messing around with the Koala pad on Wix's computer and drew a quick Style logo. While they were all out to lunch, I decided to deface it with a bit of FTA graffiti. :) It was all in good fun! (at least I HOPE they see it that way!)
