Amiga Museum UK
« on: November 07, 2016, 11:33:10 PM »
Hi fellow Amiga users, I see in the USA that there is a Amiga Computer museum, as I live in the UK I would like to know if there is such a museum of this kind over here.

Many thanks if you can help. :)

There is a place called 'Retro Cafe', in Old Portsmouth.

Not Amiga as such.

(And now a Minimig) :>)

It's not an "Amiga computer museum", it's a computer museum that happens to be located near several famous Amiga users, and where the USA event for "Amiga30" was held.

I'd be very surprised if there was a dedicated Amiga museum anywhere (unless you count Trevor's house).

The Centre for Computing History in Cambridge is worth a visit and have a good range of Amigas (although not necessarily all on display):

Thank you for your help.

The reason I asked this is I  am currently writing up the artifacts I own to put in a will, with luck I should last another five to thirty years before I disappear :)
