Why lock it? You've got the link to the Gamespot site and the press release which I hadn't even seen yet :)

I'm really looking forward to this event and YES there will be tons of pictures!

They've had it a couple of times on the GameDaily newsletter, but there really wasn't anything to link to.. However, I can cut and paste!

From 4/7/2004

History of Videogames at E3 [4/7/2004 11:36:51 AM ET]
Intellivision Productions and the Classic Gaming Expo will team up to present an interactive videogame museum at the upcoming E3Expo.
Designed to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the massive trade show, The History of Videogames will cover over 2,000 square feet and offer the chance to play just about every videogame system ever created, along with more than 30 classic stand-up arcade machines.
The exhibit will be open during show hours in its Kentia Hall location.

This one, on 3/19/2004, was about CGE relocating:

CGE Moves West, Issues ’04 Dates [3/19/2004 10:34:27 AM ET]
The 2004 Classic Gaming Expo will take place August 21-22 at the San Jose Convention Center in San Jose, California.
The new location—previous Expo’s were held in Las Vegas—was chosen as organizers were “compelled to seek larger quarters,” for the event. This year’s show will be the seventh annual, and should use some 30,000 square feet of space.
"Moving the show to California is something we've considered for the past couple of years but finding a suitable location and making arrangements to move and store our vast archive of material has taken a great deal of time and effort," explained John Hardie, co-founder of CGE Services Corporation.
