I'm thinking of starting a computer museum in Vienna, Austria. If anyone is interested in helping, please contact me privately .. I have almost every computer I've ever written code for since 1978, including some rare gems, and I hope to open up the collection for kids, mainly, to explore computer programming as it used to be done ..


Great, for how long will you have a space(real estate) to host the museum available? You should at least have a 3 year horizon.


I'm currently negotiating on a lease, 2 years .. but you're right, I should probably project things out to at least 3 years, since it'll take some time to get momentum. Thanks for the tip!


No worries. Just a helpful logistical tip to try and solve upfront instead of as you go, which can be tricky.


There's also the Patek Philippe museum in Geneva. Would recommend a visit!
