NASA sold (permanently loaned?) several acres of land in Mountain View to
The Computer Museum History Center, so they will be gearing up to finally
build a permanent museum that will open sometime in the middle of the next
decade. It should be a pretty awesome facility once its all complete.

As I told Sam, we sure are a generous group! I
saw the collection at Moffet
Field and in all seriousness, it sure was impressive. I heard somewhere
that permanent facilities have been established. Do you know if this is
true, and if so, when it will open to the public? That collection is a
*must see* for anyone interested in the history of computing!
Well... as I recall being stated during the VCF II tour (thanks again
Sam!), they were working the final details with NASA for the large
dirigible hanger near their temporary facillity.
