A Real Apple Museum

This guy’s place puts me to shame. Even in my pre-move glory days, my collection was nowhere in the vicinity of this one. For those of you that don’t know I reduced my space when I made the move to Hamilton and at least half my collection of hardware went to the dump along with all the old issues of Macworld/MacUser/Publish! etc. as well as all the software boxes. I recall the first cull that I did of software that had collected in my basement. I had filled the basement entirely, with just a walkway down the middle and the boxes tended to collapse everynow and then. So one day, with my neighbours assistance I moved most of it out. We filled the garage to a depth of six feet or so and then started collapsing boxes and filling bigger boxes. Back in those days, garbage collection was also not limited to fixed amount and they thankfully took it all letting me use my driveway again…but I digress.

Thanks to Scott for this link. I must applaud this whole concept for some of the innovative ways that he has stationed his collection. I always had a hope of having a roomy enough house to have a bit of gallery, but this guy has constructed a bar made out of Classic II’s. Take the sideshow tour. Everything even works and is wired. Equally impressive is the iMac wall, with all the colours. This guy has taken collecting to heart.

I tagged this with information_architecture and as I was doing realized that this place gives this tag a whole new meaning. Cool.
