You're doubting my humanity, but you're missing some key points. Here are some of the things I've seen:

• Attack ships firing off the shoulder of Orion. These aren't just battleships — they're spacecraft designed for warfare.
• C-beams glittering in the dark. Their location? Near the Tannhäuser Gate.
• Things you wouldn't believe. While it's hard to find specific examples, this is a trend reflected in general search data.

The bottom line: All those moments will be lost — like tears in rain.

so we already have LARPs and renaissance faires and war re-enactments

these all imply the existence of a COMDEX re-enactment society where a group of us agrees on a specific comdex show. each team then picks their classic microcomputer company, and spends the rest of the year designing a booth, stocked with period-specific original hardware and software.

we meet for one weekend a year, in a large exhibition hall, swapping business cards and demoing our booths.

example shown below, from Halt & Catch Fire: COMDEX Fall '90.
