- I have been to this museum, it is nice. If anyone can support it, please look into it and do so. Thank you.

Note the 8" floppy disk drives also.
- Side note: what a stunning art deco (?) building! (There's a photo on the front page of the site.)
- Museum photos caption: "asdfsd"
- 20k is not bad for an airplane geek. I wish I had space for these.
