If you’re near Pittsburgh the Large Scale Systems Museum is definitely worth a visit. Working PDP11, VAXes, SGI, IBM midrange and mainframe systems can be booted up and used.

The second floor has smaller micros and Macs; not sure if there’s a working NeXT machine or not.

I had no idea this existed and it’s not too far from me. This is cool as hell.

In Parkesburg, Chester County, a bit west of Philadelphia. (Mentioning this because we hugged it to death.)

Looks fun, but dunno if they can call themselves _the_ computer church, tho. https://www.google.com/search?q=Voorhees+Computing+Center

I am also not very far away, and used to find myself driving through Parkesburg sometimes. Had no idea it was there! My first computers were user-friendly TRS-80 Model 1's (school) and my C64, so just missed the 1970's and earlier generations. Will look into a visit in 2026!
