BOULDER CREEK, Calif.--Can you imagine a computer history museum that has to be packed up and put away each winter and then unpacked each summer, and which has three potbellied pigs as its mascot?
I can, because I've just visited the DigiBarn, a wonderful trip down silicon memory lane that's nestled into a 19th-century farmhouse deep in the Santa Cruz mountains, about 90 minutes south of San Francisco.

After I read this, I felt really old, but I'm sure there are older geeks out and about than me, what sparks your mind the most?

Hi,
I also heard about a different one a while ago - I made a decision to make these places a primary site-seeing location should I ever visit the area.
Thanks for adding one to my list ;)
Best wishes

I think I want to take my kids to one when they are older, then when they get home, point out how lucky they are (10 years from now with new tech. all around). Then bore them with all the crap things we had growing up. :D

I just remember the time when i get to feel that contra in family computer seems real? but as i compare it to the games now? man what a crap i had played when i was a kid. And my pc used to be the top of the line that was a amd k2 133Mhz with a 16Mb memory and a 200mb Hardisk? A cd has more space than that!
