R.I.P. Bruce Bell
We were saddened to learn of the passing of one of our long time customers Bruce Bell at the age of 76.
It was always good to hear from Bruce and we visited him and Verna in their lovely home to work on their computers many times. Despite his many health issues he always had a smile on his face when we met met him. He will be missed.
You can read the notice of his passing here.

Dave is stepping down.
How does one say goodbye after fifteen years? In my case, I guess it starts with a brief history, a few memories and ends with a Douglas Adams quote.
It seems like yesterday that VAM started as a home-based business in a basement. It was 1996, long before the Internet was the bustling meet-up place it is now. My first job for VAM Computers was to change out a 486 SX33 motherboard and replace it with a sweet 486 DX2/66mhz. At the risk of digressing and to give you an idea of the advances we’ve seen in technology since then, that “upgraded computer” ran at 66 megahertz with 2 megabytes of memory and a 1 gigabyte hard drive. Most modern computers run at 3000+ megahertz, tend to have 6144 or more megs of ram and have hard drive storage capacity ranging starting at 1024 gigabytes. That machine was also running the DOS 6.22 (text based) operating system. Currently, machines are running the eighth generation of graphical interface Microsoft Operating systems.
