Collections
Within the museum is a collection of old computers dating from the 1960s to the 1990s in danger of disappearance. This is named Bolo’s Computer Museum, (BCM) and opened in June 2002. Besides old computers, this collection includes other items associated with old computers, such as peripheral devices, hardware documentation and related books and magazines.
BCM's new collection, opened November 10, 2011, is a permanent one called "Programmed disappearance" and includes the rarest objects of its collection.
