Hm, quite unspectacular when you've been to the real IBM museum (formerly
in Sindelfingen, now in Sch?naich).

I'm sure it is, & I would love myself, but for those who have not, or
can't, perhaps because they live on a different continent or lack the
cost of the travel, I thought it might be fun.

That's surely true. Honestly, I didn't even know that there is another
IBM museum. But IBM, although they definitely have the means, seem to not
really appreciate their exhibits, otherwise they wouldn't have sold their
old historical building where the museum was housed and transferred the
stuff somewhere into their main research building (with difficult access
for the public).
