I took my minor collection to an educators conference here in the
northwest a few years back. The conference organizers provided a lockable
exhibit room and I provided old working machines. It was a real hit! I
talk with a lot of teachers that went down memory lane when they saw some
of my machines.
My only rule that in order to be exhibited it had to run.
Twas a lot of fun.

What I always envisioned was some kind of traveling
road show for old
computers. Something not too hard to setup and take down that would maybe
run some networked games etc. and show people what it was like in the "old"
days.
Another idea I had was similar using compact macs, like the SE or SE/30,
and a traveling setup for demos of the net, email etc.
