The best 300 artifacts from my collection of
13,000 computer items.
This is just some reminiscing about old times when I had a small historical microcomputer museum in Floyd, Virginia. The entire collection was acquired by the "Computer Museum of America" in 2016. I am proud to still be working with historical computers as a Board Member at the "Computer Museum of America".
