Univ. of Texas at Arlington computer museum

I just found this and I find it pretty interesting. Apparently, UA@A is starting a computer history museum. They seem to have quite a few machines there. Did anyone already know about this? It's the first I've hearda bout it.

And what the heck is a Visual Commuter laptop? I found one on ebay.

Apparently curtis knows about it, he seems to have donated quite a few items. I think he may have posted something about it before.

BTW, the VT Commuter is a very nice item to add to your collection. It only weighs about 16 pounds, if that helps you figger-out the shipping cost. I'm sure you've already seen this:

There's also a two-page ad posted here:

Nathan,

So, did you win the auction for the VT? I see it has ended.
