Show and tell, browse, discuss vintage computers

Hello All,

NOTICE: The meetup will be at the usual venue, Bingo Bingo in Grand Prairie after all. The venue has cleared up the electrical issue and was able to accommodate our meetup.

The meetup will be held on Saturday November 7, 2026, from 12:00-4:00pm, at Bingo Bingo, 1806 S Carrier Pkwy · Grand Prairie, TX.

Sorry for any confusion caused by all the changes.

This meetup is brought to you by the DFW Retrocomputing Meetup group and the Vintage Computing Collective of North Texas, and sponsored by Mouser.

We are grateful for Mouser's support. They appreciate social media acknowledgement, so if you post photos from the event, or comments about the event, on social media, please be sure to tag them on social media:

The meetup will begin at 12:00 pm and end at 4:00 pm. The library allows 15 minutes before and after the event for setup and clear-out.
When entering the main entrance of the library, the meeting room is to the left. Please be mindful of other library patrons and ensure that equipment does not damage doors, walls or other patrons of the library.

When parking, please be careful to observe the parking lot markings, and only park in marked parking spaces. Last time, some people parked in areas intended for parking lot navigation, which can cause issues with parking lot traffic and fire/first responder access.

As always, the there will be a concession stand with a selection of comfort food, so plan to eat lunch there.

We encourage you to bring something for show and tell. It could be a new addition to your collection or a favorite system you've showcased before. Don't be shy. We love seeing the unique treasures our community has to offer. And if you're not quite ready to exhibit, no worries—just bring yourself and your passion for retrocomputing.

You are welcome to bring your items for swap, sale, or giveaway. You are responsible for removing any items that you do not sell or give away. We cannot leave behind any unclaimed or unsold items.

For browsers, please do not cannibalize equipment on the free tables.

You are welcome (and encouraged) to bring your family. If you bring young children, please keep an eye on them.

I look forward to seeing all of you there!

Dave
