We’re adding an additional 2110 sqft to our existing Large Systems Gallery featuring KICKI a 1972 DEC PDP-10 model KI. This will unify our exhibit space and allow us to move visible storage and some restoration work to back of house. But don’t worry, you will still get to see engineers working on machines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our microcomputer exhibit is expanded with several additional machines including 1990s desktops and workstations (per your requests!) The expansion also lets us have a more open floor plan to comfortably accommodate build workshops. Our next workshop features the Adwater & Stir Altair 8800<\/a> and will be held in late October.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To help with the expansion we’ve created a new sponsorship level: AOS. For those who contribute at least $1000 in the calendar years 2026, 2027 and 2028 we will commemorate your commitment with a special 777777,,777777 Group name plaque. This includes one time donations, UUO and MONITOR sponsorship levels as well as the new AOS sponsorship.
