I'm from the UK and used to work for HGST (Owned, then assimilated, by Western Digital) and used to travel to SJ 2-3 times a year for specialist tech training and business briefings.
I made it to Halted a couple of times and would spend a good few hours hunting around for bits and pieces. I saw some lovely test gear and other things that were just not compatible (logistics and cash-wise) with air travel.
I did however pick up a pristine TS1000 (Sinclair ZX81) with 16K RAM cartridge that was hiding in a plan box, for $15.
It was sad when Halted closed - we've nothing like that in the UK, at least in my region.
