Just a reminder to everyone that this Saturday, March 17, the Personal Computer Museum is hosting a special tribute to Jim Butterfield.
In attendance will be Vicki Butterfield (Jim’s wife). We are also hoping that Karl Hildon (Transactor) and Steve Punter (WordPro, Punter Protocol) will also be in attendance (neither are confirmed but both have indicated they will try to be there) Come share your fondest memories of Jim, play with some of his computers, discover facts about him you didn’t know – and even get a chance to win a copy of his book “Machine Language for the Commodore 64 and other Commodore Computers” that was owned by Jim himself.
We have some of the neatest things like the famous “smoking jacket” that was pictured in the infamous “centrefold” in Transactor magazine. Get a unique chance to have your picture taken with this piece and much, much more.
