Paul Allen passes away

For the last 2 years, the Pacific Commodore Expo NW has been at the Seattle, Washington Living Computers: Museum + Labs, a venue established by Paul Allen. On Oct. 15, 2018, Paul Allen passed away. I never met Paul Allen, but friend and museum official Stephen Jones had. Stephen told me that Paul had stories to tell about Commodore! Perhaps that is one of the reasons he let our show be based at his museum. Rest in peace, Mr. Allen.
