Vintage Computer Federation hasn't added a story.
Vintage Computer Federation is a national user group that enables collectors and restorers of historic computing systems. We're a 501(c)3 non-profit and evolved in 2015 from the merger of three previously separate entities -- Mid-Atlantic Retro Computing Hobbyists (MARCH), the Vintage Computer Festival event series, and the Vintage Computer Forum discussion site.
Our museum location in Wall, N.J. is home to the club's own collection of historic computers. Our goal there is to restore as many systems as possible back to operating condition. We've made fantastic progress, but we need more funds. We also strive to incubate new chapters in other places, offer more resources on our vcfed.org web site, and expand the Vintage Computer Festival to more cities.
There are many famous computer chips. One of our all-time favorites is the Intel 8080, which is the chip most responsible for jump-starting the personal microcomputing revolution. The 4004 and 8008 came before, and the MOS 6502 certainly sold more units, but the 8080 inspired a worldwide movement around 1975-1976 including a significant user base here in the Garden State.
Please help us to honor the 8080 and reach our goals by contributing to an $8,080 campaign. All donations are tax-deductible.
Thank you!
