[Coco] CoCoFest

[Boisy Pitre]

I'll add to what Mark said.  This year's venue was a very nice show,  
and we had a terrific time.  Sales were very good, and I would like  
to take this time to once again thank all of our customers for  
showing their support for the CoCo and Cloud-9 by purchasing our  
products.  I think if there was defining theme to this year's show,  
it was that the CoCo is still fun to develop on, and it has plenty of  
tricks left to exploit.

Having arrived back home at 4:30am due to a late flight into Houston  
and the 3.5 hour drive back home, I've only had limited time to  
unpack and get things back in order, but I did take a few minutes to  
run John's Donkey Kong and am very impressed with the level of  
playability.  Great, great job!

Also I played with the Asimov Awards games.  Very nice stuff, and  
again shows the viability of the CoCo even in this day and age.   
Kudos to all involved.

It was great seeing everyone again this year.  For those who missed  
the fest, you are doing yourself a big disservice by not coming.  I  
suspect Glenside will have another fest next year, and you should do  
everything you can possible to make it.  Folks like Dave and Susan  
Poitras flew down, Diego Barizo took a train, it's just incredible  
how folks find a way to make it to the fest!

Again, thanks to all.
