For those of you still reading:

	    B.C.'s longest-running personal computing event, 
	     the PACIFIC COAST COMPUTER FAIR AND SWAP MEET 
		     is back for its 16th year!

Time and date:	Saturday, 14 Oct, 10am to 4pm
Location:	McPherson Centre, 7325 MacPherson, Burnaby
		(near Metrotown, south of Kingsway and east of Royal Oak)
Admission:	Only $3.00 (no coupons required!)

The swap meet portion of the Fair will consist of 50 to 60 vendors with a total
of about 80 tables.  Vendors will be selling new and used computer equipment,
ranging from the latest technology to "I remember when..." technology.  On the 
software side, there will be shareware, CD-ROMs, and assorted applications 
and games for various makes of computers.  Also present will be companies 
offering computer-related services, including Internet access.

Several local computer user groups will also be putting on displays.  These
can be a great source of (mostly) unbiased information.  Find out from actual
users what they think of hardware, software, or services.

There will be hourly door prize draws.  Food and beverages are available 
on-site.

The Fair is run by the Pacific Coast Computer Fair Association, a non-profit
society of volunteers drawn from the local personal computing community. 
It is in no way associated with the commercially-run computer swap meets being
operated in British Columbia.

Remember, we only run a single Fair each year, so if you miss this one you'll 
have to wait a whole twelve months!
