On the 14th of January, the ACMS in Conjuction with IBM Australia ran a 1.5 hour virtual event of the history of IBM in Australia in tandom with their 90th Birthday in Australia the proceeding week. This month the ACMS team is running 50 minute tours and interactive events to show the National Computer Heritage Centre and ACMS Member's Museum at our new home, 9 West Street Croydon.

Come and see microcomputers of Australia, talk to like-minded individuals, and catch a glimpse of the ACMS museum – a work in progress.

Curated by Peter Irwin and other members, this fascinating glimpse into IBM history and our existing retrogaming exhibit will engage both vintage and modern users alike!

In addition to the wonderful Australian Collection, IBM workstation and Mainframes, Punch machines and others on display, there is approximately 10 Functional computer exhibits will also be available for you to jump on and experience. Exhibits include Altair, Commodore, Amiga, Apple, Atari, Microbee, Peach, Sega and more! (Note: Due to the age of our exhibits systems may be swapped out at the last minute so we cannot guarantee your desired experience will be available at your session time.)

Spots are limited to just 15 people per session to ensure you get some time on a device – get in quick so you don't miss out!

Better yet – you can pay for entry to this event using your NSW Dine and Discover Discover Voucher at the door.

Funds raised will support this event, member services, and help achieve the establishment of a permanent Australian Computer Museum.
