I did my bit promoting hecnet at the VCF. There are some pictures here: http://amibay.com/showthread.php?t=7165 If you look carefully you should be able to spot the DIGITAL logo and hecnet info in one of the images - I'm the one looking pensive at the thought of being filmed ;) For the most part the show was dedicated to gaming computers and the BBC Model B which spanned gaming and education in the UK. One of the stands had Spectrums modified to communicate over the internet - they were using a microvax 3100 running openbsd to serve up firmware to the spectrums (afaik). Not sure how much interest will be generated long term, but there were a few people who'd heard of hecnet and a few who said they'd like to get a machine up and running on it. The BBC programme 'Click' is due to air on 2nd July and will have a segment about VCF UK. Regards, Mark
