I know that there has been a tremendous amount of talk

yellowing from vintage equipment, but going forward, does anyone have
any suggestions for helping prevent yellowing of equipment on display,
short of keeping them in a dark cave? I have a couple of Apple II's
that are in excellent condition with minimal yellowing and would like
to put them on display without having to worry about damage to the
plastic.
Pack the equipment away with some dessicant and some activated
charcoal (to absorb any outgassing products) and stick it in cold
storage.
