I saw a blurb in the newspaper (available at
http://www.tcm.org/join_forces.html) that The Computer Museum and The
Science Museum in Boston, MA are merging. It says that 'The History
Center' of the Computer Museum is now in Mountain View, California and is
applying to become a separate institution. Anyway, this shuffling may mean
lots of stuff being thrown out or damaged. The Computer Museum may opt to
clean out its basement...
Not likely. I'm not on the inside but I gather its merely a formality to
make the History Center officially a separate organization, History Center
and the "Museum" have little in common as far as their mission goes.
