I have a retro computing collection that I have maintained, in working order, over the decades, and it has taken up a significant portion of my living space.
To the point now where I recently found a Retro computing museum to start taking some of my items for public display. This is happening in a city (Vienna, Austria) quite well known for its obscure "Wunderkammer" culture, so it wasn't really a hard sell - I just had to be sure nothing inoperational was on display, and that things worked. Easy!
45,000+ visitors later, my little obsession has turned into a profession, with business cards and everything!
So I can perfectly understand the cabinet-of-curiosities->museum process. Its real and still a thing in todays world.
- ggambetta 3y agoThat's amazing! What's the name or website? Would love to visit (I'm in Zürich, not in Vienna, but close enough for a long weekend trip).
