Seconded. I was lucky enough to be involved in a demo of the machine at the museum during a visit just over a year ago. I am based in the UK and was in San Jose visiting our company HQ for a couple of weeks. I went to the museum one weekend and was chatting to the two gentlemen who were due to run the demo; when I told them I'd seen the other machine in the Science Museum in London, they asked if I would discuss the differences (pun not intended) between the two during their presentation. I was happy to oblige and spent a minute or so explaining how much better the one in Mountain View was because it wasn't behind glass and it could be seen in action. I went back to the museum during another visit last October and saw the machine again. I guess there's now going to be a void to fill next to the Cray, but even without the Babbage Engine, the museum is really worth a visit. Happy travels crazy computer.
