Next time I’m in Brantford, Ontario I know where I’m going: Syd Bolton’s Personal Computer Museum!
According to the website, they have over 45 interactive computer displays and over 1,000 computers in total. The collection consist of a massive 25,000 artifacts (including computers, software, magazines and books) with approximately 5,000 items in the museum at any given time. Check out the lists of computers and software.
The museum is open on select dates as well as for school/group tours (best school excursion ever!).
Syd is Canada’s top video game collector – watch him and his partner Jenny Schween talk about what it’s like to have such a large collection of video games (15,000!) and computers:
