FWIW there are more than one kind of museum. There is a "Tech museum" kind that has a bunch of pretty displays behind plexiglass and the "research" kind. (And a whole bunch that are somewhere in the middle). If you have privileges at a research museum you can work on and/or use parts of the collection that are not available for "general" use. I would expect that a good research computer museum would be a great place to visit. --Chuck
