  • Die West Coast Computer Faire (deutsch „Westküsten-Computer-Messe“) war eine von 1977 bis 1991 jährlich, zumeist in der kalifornischen Hafenstadt San Francisco, stattfindende Warenschau und Konferenz für Rechnertechnik. Zur Zeit ihrer ersten Eröffnung, am 16. April 1977, war sie die weltweit größte Messe ihrer Art und legte einen besonderen Fokus darauf, den Personal Computer (PC) populär zu machen. Ab 1984 fand sie im Moscone Center (Bild) von San Francisco statt, das 16. und letzte Mal vom 30. Mai bis zum 2. Juni 1991. (de)

However, Apple Inc. stopped exhibiting at the West Coast Computer Faire, refusing to exhibit at any show other than COMDEX that also had PC-based exhibits. In 1983, Warren sold the rights to the Faire for US$3 million to Prentice Hall, who later sold it to Sheldon Adelson, the owner of Interface Group and COMDEX. In total, sixteen shows were held, with the last in 1991. After Warren sold the show, it had a few more good years, and then declined rapidly. (en)

  • ウェスト・コースト・コンピュータ・フェア(英語: West Coast Computer Faire; WCCF)とは、かつてサンフランシスコを中心に年次開催されていたコンピュータ産業の会議および見本市。最初の開催は1977年にとボブ・レーリングによって計画された。当時としては世界で最も大規模なコンピュータ見本市で、家庭へのパーソナルコンピュータの普及を意図したものであった。ウェストコーストPCフェア (West Coast PC Faire) はより特化した見本市として実施された。しかし、Appleが同じPCベースの見本市であるCOMDEX以外での出展は断るようになり、ウェスト・コースト・コンピュータ・フェアへの出展も切り上げた。1983年、ウォーレンは見本市の権利を300万ドルでに売却し、後にインターフェース・グループやCOMDEXのオーナーであるシェルドン・アデルソンに売却された。1991年までに計16回の見本市が開催された。ウォーレンが見本市を売却した後、数年の興隆を経てすぐに衰退した。 (ja)
