Boston Computer Museum Tour (1985)

A very rare look inside The former ”Computer Museum Boston.”

The Computer Museum in Boston, opened in 1979 and operated in three different locations until 1999. It was once referred to as TCM and was sometimes called the Boston Computer Museum.


The Museum closed its doors in 2000. Its collection of vintage computing was sent to the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California, which holds the largest vintage computer collection in the world. 


This six minute excerpt from the BBC series “MICRO Live” shows a nice collection of items with a brief explanation of each. Unfortunately, It does NOT tour the entire museum or give credit to the museum's excellent collection of that time period, but it does provide a brief window back in time to some of its early computer items from 1985. I hope you enjoy this little glimpse of the past.
