I fancied some blue-sky thinking, so joined the great migration.
The interface is familiar and lots of familiar retro faces!

When I find Amiga items in the museum stores that have incomplete info and photos on the Amiga information sites, I always like to help them out.

@DubiousEngineer@MuseumComputing Thankfully not! Not like the time I bought a pumpkin and a tub of vaseline from Tesco. The vaseline was to preserve the pumpkin carving, honest!

To the World's Greatest 'Hacker'!
Do you know anything about this item? Did you make it or perhaps present it to Kevin Mitnick?
Found in a house clearance warehouse its new owner would love to know more about it.

The Museum of Computing would like to thank @shortcircuit104 for organising the amazing RetroFest event in our home town of Swindon. It was a pleasure to collaborate with them and we met so many wonderful visitors and exhibitors. Looking forward to supporting next year's event!
A few more checks needed but a new LOPT has fixed this Atari ST monitor for @MuseumComputing
The HR STVDST-01 TV simulator is a useful tool for confirming the old LOPT was faulty before replacing it. The old LOPT has a strange bulge which could be from a winding breaking down.
@TheRetroMartin@MuseumComputing Thanks for helping in the morning Martin! Much quicker with your help. It was dark when I finished, but here's how it looked this morning, and it's much quieter in the gallery now.

It really is an amazing storage facility, that even has a conservation area. Currently it's storing over 300k objects! Here are some more photos while I go off to try and find £65m down the back of the sofa to build one of my own! That would solve our museum's storage issues!
Our curator had a very interesting visit to the opening of the Science Museum Group's amazing new Hawking Building. Named after the brilliant theoretical physicist, Stephen Hawking, the huge storage facility left him both impressed and inspired.
Now open for public tours!
