-The Pacific Commodore Expo NW was a very big success!  Attendees came from Washington, Oregon, Idaho, California, and Arizona!  Wow!  It became crowded at times in our venue room, but everybody was very happy to be amongst the Commodore and Amiga computers.  Thank you to the attendees, the exhibitors, the Old Rainier Brewery Intraspace, and SDF.org! +

-May 5, 2023 -- PaCommEX awakens!  After several months of quiet, the Pacific Commodore Expo NW is now moving quickly to its opening!  Paperwork signed, room reserved.  Time to get the presentations and exhibits locked down.  Spread the word that our Seattle event is happening on June 24-25!  For more details on the venue, see the front page of this site. +

-==== PaCommEx - The Return! ==== +

-I just received word that we can have the Pacific Commodore Expo NW again at the "Interim Computer Museum" at the Old Rainier Brewery in Seattle on June 24-25, 2023!  Whoo-hoo! +
-==== As of 2021 ==== +

-July 27, 2021 -- I spoke with the head of computer collections at the Living Computers: Museum + Labs, our venue for PaCommEx.  In our telephone conversation, he hinted that the LCM+L may be reopening in 2022 in conjunction with another Seattle festival.  If the museum opens, then we can hopefully put on PaCommEx once again! +
-==== Dave A. Freeman passes away ==== +
- +
-Dave A. Freeman of The Living Computers: Museum + Labs passed away in late Sept. 2020.  He was a hardware engineer at the museum and helped a great deal in the set-up of PaCommEx each year.  To see my full write-up on him and see other links, go to +

-==== Update on the PaCommEx Venue ==== +
- +
-July 29, 2020 -- I talked to one of the contact people at the Living Computers: Museum + Labs where we have PaCommEx.  The museum is o.k. financially.  It was closed just because of Covid.  The contact person says that as soon as they get out of Covid restrictions, the museum can reopen, and he is eager to have PaCommEx return.  However, Seattle is barely dipping into Phase II of reopening, and museums are not in Phase II.  He estimates that it could be anywhere between 12 to 18 months before the museum can reopen. +
