Atari Video Club announced not to have a show in 2007.
For Immediate Release:
8/19/2006

After major consideration AVC has decided to postpone the Video
Game Summit until 2008. there were couple factors that went into
this decision:
First, we had a low attenendence this year

from MGC and CGE, which is take year off and come back fresh
the next year. So to all those wo either helped,vended,exhbited
,sponsored or attended on behalf of the VGS staff, we would like to
say thanks and we hope to see you in 2008.

Hello,

Everytime I tried to go to the website to vote, my computer crashed so I am
emailing. I would say possibly yes, but it would have to depend on if I am

do have to work some weekends.
