| Welcome!
Yes, I'm
collecting old computers! The progress in the computer industry is so
lightning fast that computers will very quick become museum items. I
try to collect some milestones and classical computers. For example the
first PC, the first portable, the first true laptop and so on. I want
all my computers to be in original shape, unmodified and in working
condition. It is also fine if original OS, manuals and software are
included.
As the museum is located in
Sweden I have a special focus on Swedish
computers.

One way to celebrate the history
of computing is by collecting them and letting other people see how far
we have come. Isaac Newton: one wrote: “If I have seen further it
is by standing on the shoulders of giants” putting that into
context of computers the computers of today are only so good because of
the ones that came before.
