It was interesting to contrast various museums in UK that I'm aware of.
There is the retro computer museum [1] which I've been to in Leicester which I was very impressed with, when talking to the guy he mentioned that they receive no funding and it's all run by volunteers. It's entirely self supporting and very good!
There is a national museum of videogames [2] which was ok, but ran out of money on it's site in Nottingham and later reopened in Sheffield. I believe this gets a large amount of [maybe lottery] funding >1 million / year.
Then there is stuff like Bletchley park site which I need to visit at some point which I assume gets a lot of state funding, I don't know much about this though.
