Micro Memories

摘要

The article that inspired this series of Micro Memories columns first ran in the July 2001 issue of Nuts & Volts, and featured Silicon Valley's Computer History Museum, then located in rather Spartan quarters — a Quonset hut located on the Moffett Field airbase in Mountain View, CA. Moffett Field is now owned by NASA, but for many years it was a Navy airbase, and to this day, checking in means stopping by a gate manned with rough men who look like they're just back from shore patrol, and require IDs before they'll let just any civilian enter a military base. But it was worth it, to visit a Quonset absolutely filled to the gills with a 120 years or so of computers, robots, calculators, and their predecessor's.
