Aaaaaahhhhh, I feel a song coming up !:

"Ich hab’ noch einen cab da in Berlin
Deswegen muss ich nächstens wieder hin."


Brilliant !!! I'm sure I can talk my wife into a weekend Berlin and then I'll propose I'd like to see some of the rich culture and museums  ;D ;D ;D

Better yet, if your wife would have some nice female company, they could go shopping and the blokes could do some culture sniffing.  ;)

Intersting. I see it's on the Karl Marx Allee in the former cafe Warschau. That's oldschool EastBerlin

Well, technically it's a ComputerSPIELE museum, which means computer GAMES (in fact, this is weird, since the German word for Computer is "Rechner" (which means "calculator" actually, so it's a very poor translation) so they should have called it either Rechner-spiele or Computergames museum  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Anyway, you're right !!! They should offer at least something for those people !

So uhm, which version of Firefox runs on a Falcon nowadays ? ;)

it's about respect for the weirdest !  ;D

go back in 80's,   before the "graphic internet",  the web was existing among newsgroups & bbs.     

i like to see that some very skilled programmers who litteraly take the guts of these old good computers.  and it's even awesome that commodore64 have tcp/ip now !   even vic20 had a twitter experience  8)     sure it's a nightmare even just for have "google" in text mode.  but it's that the real computer respect !  get the guts of your hardware.     crystal atari browser  was known for atari st/tt.

but well if it's only a game site  that is not necessary   (damn  that's the third site after megavideo/myspace  that i cannot try access anymore)

since the German word for Computer is "Rechner"

A far better german word for Computer is "Elektronengehirn", though it's not used anymore  ;D

If you were really into computers then, you're probably really into them now and there's a heavy chance you do have a recent browser.
If you're surfing on an MSX, well you don't need to go to a museum, you live in one :)

Yeah, we'll keep our credit cards with us, right Erik ? :)

However, we'll be going to Cambridge for a weekend pretty soon  (that's my wife and I) so the "Koffer" will have to wait a bit longer :)
