When I was living there I found February to be the best time to visit, of
course it was about the worst time to be outside :^) Summer and Holiday
weekends were something of a nightmare.
What gets me is it sounds like the computer exhibit at the Museum of
American History hasn't changed any in the last 10+ years. Though it sounds
like the Aerospace museum has updated their exhibit some. I'm pretty sure
it didn't have a MicroVAX II the last time I was there, of course that was
in '93, so it could simply be faulty memory on my part.

The museums in DC are great, alright... but summer is
the worst season to visit. Just too many people.
