Comment on Ask HN: Places in the UK / Europe Related to computers

Comments

I wanted to tell you about computer museums in Germany, but then I've found a list of computer museums of the world at wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_computer_museums

In Germany we've quite a few more or less good equiped museums.. The one in Stuttgart, South of Germany, is located at the University and is quite interesting. May be the upper List will be of good inspiration for you!

The Video Game Museum is a smaller museum in Berlin https://www.computerspielemuseum.de/, but it has a lot of fun early history personal gaming equipment, with playable units. And including a lot of euro gaming and (at the time of my visit) running demoscene items I knew little to nothing about.

especially the demos are (over-all) astonishing! I still remember the cracks made by phrozen crew and razor 1911 in the '90ties. They incorporated demos into their cracks of a few dozen Kb - that was awesome! What an audiovisual experience! That was my first time I heard about the demoscene :)
