I'm one of these people who finds it very difficult to part with certain things. Kayaks and computers are the main two things. I've just got rid of my second kayak (a 12 year-old Ace Europa, in case anyone is interested).
I've sold one computer in my time. It was a Jupiter Ace, and it is definately a collector's piece now. So, I doubt I'll get rid of anything ever again! Having said that, my house is only so big, and its only a matter of time before some of the lower-spec PC type bits go. There have been thousands of millions of PC's built, and apart from, say, a mint 64K IBM PC or PC/XT with original mono graphics card, none will be particularly collectable. I have given away my old 120MHz Pentium laptop to my sister to use for Word Processing, and in about three years time, this laptop, a 466MHz Celeron, will probably go the same way.
So, enough woffle, the table below show's what is in the museum. Hopefully, if I get it right, they will be in cronological order, and if an image is available, you will be able to click on the machine name. As well as the images, I may put more detailed information up in sub-pages. We'll see how it goes. If there's a machine image or information you want, E-mail me, and I'll see what I can do :-)
