It's basically a series of very lovely photos of various pieces of their collection. Perhaps a bit heavy on the close-ups of core memory and wiring stacks, but hey, some of us get off on that, too :) I'm not sure where it can be ordered online. VCF's site doesn't seem to sell their gift shop items (which is unfortunate, as I didn't see their really cool poster of old computer advertising while there.) Price at the shop was about $30.

I can vouch for the book, though. I bought a copy at the Computer History Museum book signing a few weeks ago. It could have a bit more variety and a LOT more tech details, but it's not bad as coffee- table computer porn! The photos are quite well done.
