Computer Museum

For almost 20 years, I have been collecting "antique" and "classic" computers. My hope is to someday figure out a way to have a museum to display these "remnants of a once proud civilization." My collection may be considered "large" by some and consists of over 100 computers (I've lost count ). If you'd like to get rid of that great antique, drop me an e-mail.


Fast Facts:

Oldest Computer: 1969 Varian Mini Computer

Newest Computer: 2007 24inch 2.16 GHz iMac

Most "obscure" computer: COSMAC VIP (Video Information Processor)

Least "rare" computer: 4 Timex/Sinclair 1000s with accessories
