Long Beach, CA Computer Show 1/11 - 1/13

[hardwarejunkee]

I saw a small posting on the wall at the library that there is a computer show at the Long Beach Convention Center on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I dont remember the exact hours, but I do remember that they were running them LATE!

I think like 8 or 9 at night.

hardwarejunkee: If you get more info please post it. I checked the Convention Center's Event Calendar (on their site). The only thing it says about next weekend is a closed meeting for the International Association of Jazz Educators.

He's just posting this so he can beat up and rob us rich computer geeks who shop up at the convention center with fistfulls of cash.

If this is like the Computer Clearence at McCormick place and (I thought Rosemont Center in Chicago), stay AWAY!!:disgust::disgust::disgust:
It was sponsered by "World Discount" somthing..This I think..
I went to it about a week ago, because they adverised (tv and posters) 100's of computers' and $5 playstation games..
1 person selling junky machines at full retail, another selling junk software, and the rest clothing, slot machines, and other garbage.
It was $5 at the door, all I got was a sausage log and a $20 wallet.
:disgust: The ticket was marked "Internet Show".
I'm not sure if this is the same.

Admission $ 9.00. Also, don't forget parking about $10. :Q

Went to the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center (formerly Rosemont) at Chicago, IL last Friday. You'll find lots of new and old/junk stuff.

I don't know about this computer show, but we already have the granddaddy of all computer shows at the Pomona Fairplex every 3 or 4 weeks. It's huge and a large percentage of the vendors have B&M stores where you can find them for returns etc. I'd rather spend $10 getting into the Fairplex knowing that there's going to be 3 - 4 times the vendors.

Not trying to crap on your thread hardwarejunkie, but I would be a bit leery of a one time show that might be attracting dog and pony vendors from all over the country who you will never see again.

No, I'm not a vendor, just a satisfied customer.
