News for 2010:
AVC Online will once again be at Midwest Gaming Classic on March 27th and 28th and we will also be working the Jagfest Section.
I will have some help from fellow atariage/jagsectour member Astropuff who will be suppling two jaguars and tvs and games.
Also we will once again be doing a video cast from there.
As well as a limited suplly of AVC Online, Jagfest on tour shirts and
the new Jagfest tour Shirts with the new designed fronts to match the new covers of the Jagfest issues (which will also be on display only).

I will also have the two laserman games on the emulator as well have the waiting lists for the games.
and while the the jagfest anniversary book is still being worked on
