The DigiBarn Computer Museum
This site used to mirror an actual museum that was open to the public. There is still a large collection of older computers, many of which are left running for visitors to play with, which has been moved to safer spaces at the System Source Computer Museum in Maryland. They even have a Cray 1, although it isn't currently running. Here are some photos from an Open House years prior to the move.
