Here be some quickly thrown together retro-computing links. More is to come, especially the local stuff when I have figured out what can be distributed.
Below are a list of museums with wide collections or at least collections not specific to a certain hardware platform. The archives listed also contains information about lots of platforms, operating systems and other software.
