YoKenny Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Where Old Computers Find Their Final Resting PlaceMax Burnet has turned his home in the leafy suburbs of Sydney into arguably Australia?s largest private computer museum. Since retiring as director of Digital Equipment Corporation a decade ago, Burnet has converted his interest in the computing industry into an invaluable snapshot of computer history. Every available space from his basement to the top floor of his two-storey home is covered with relics from the past. His collection is vast, from a 1920s Julius Totalisator, the first UNIX PDP-7, a classic DEC PDP-8, the original IBM PC, Apple?s Lisa, MITS Altair 8800, numerous punch cards and over 6000 computer reference books. And more. He happily opened his doors for CIO to take a look. http://www.cio.com.au:80/article/268510/sl...l_resting_place "Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school." - Albert Einstein IE7Pro user Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
