I had the pleasure of stopping into the Brantford museum in September of last year for
the open house, and even got a personalized tour of the basement from Syd. Luck would have
it that we were visiting Toronto while the open house was on.
It was quite the stash, and most of the gear was up and running, so you could play with
it. Problem was, I wanted to take some of the stuff home with me..
Worth the visit for sure.

And of course, don't forget that if you find yourself in Canada - you have to visit
the Personal Computer Museum (http://www.pcmuseum.ca) - just a 1 hour drive from
Toronto.

I thought I'd drop a note after visiting the LCM
on Saturday. I cannot
endorse this museum enough, I had a complete blast.
I latched onto a tour with a new docent by the name of Aaron who was
truly the nicest chap - so much so we ended up BS'ing for 40 minutes
after the tour. In a manner in which the other person isn't trying to
get away, no less, which is probably novel for most of us.
To be able to monkey about with a multi-rack 8, or a Nova was very
cool. To stand next to a running Sigma9 or in front of a 13-rack
KI10... I highly, highly recommend it to anyone who visits the area.
Also, Rich, I see you:
