    Geeks' paradise! Great for access too.

    As a self-proclaimed geek, I have been looking forward to visiting here for ages, and I wasn't disappointed. I don't usually mention my autism on here, as it never seems relevant to the visits I have... but this wonderful little museum fed my passion for all things computing and gaming, and took me on a trip down memory lane.
