La Computer Fair a Disapointment

I decided to check out the Computer Fair at the Pomona Fair Grounds. I had not been to the Computer Fair for at least six years. I was interested in going to visit it again.

It was a huge disappointment. The fair used to be large taking up two rooms. Now, it barely took up 75% of one room. Moreover, there was one vendor that was selling a washer and dryer. Something else that caught my eye was floppy drives going for four dollars. Who buys floppy drives for four dollars?! Unfortunately those were the highlights of the trip. I believe it cost about 8 dollars for parking and another 8 dollars for entry. I left thinking they would have to pay me to go again.

I was discussing this with my friends and we figure that the internet killed off the Computer Fair. I can see how it would be difficult to compete against the online retailers.
