Tour of the Colorado Computer Museum

#monthly #communication #colorado #tour

The mission of Colorado Computer Museum is to collect, conserve, and
exhibit all kinds of information processing technology, preserve the
knowledge of it, illuminate its effect on society and foster
understanding of the underlying science. Today, the museum has collected over 3000 artifacts.

Our tagline is "A Hands-On History of Information Technology,"
indicating that we value hands-on interaction. By "information
technology," we mean any technology that processes information, not just
literal computer systems.

We are working on a future large-scale exhibit, "A Brief History of
The Computer" illustrates the development of the electronic digital
computer from the late 1930s to what became the ubiquitous desktop
computer of the 1980s. Also included in the exhibit space is our Cray-2
supercomputer and a Wall of Weird and Wonderful items that are sure to
spark some interest.
