Maybe my dad and I could work on the TRS-80 floppy drive next time we get a chance.

Got here earlier than usual because of the weekend event says the museum should be open at 12. Tony was here moving the new backdrop for the featured artifact. I helped him move it. He also measured his exhibit table and looked at the Apple //.
We had about a dozen visitors today from the casual run through, to the give me a tour to the move extensive long tour. Connor S stopped by with his mother and grand parents visiting from St. Louis. I let him try some BASIC programming on the original chiclet PET as well as play Little Computer People on the Commodore 64.
I asked him for an update on his science fair that he did on vintage computers. It sounded like it went well.
I assessed the state of various machines to see how we could get more demos running on them. One thing that I would like to have is a MOD player for the Amiga 1000 called EdPlayer. Could someone bring that in?
I would love to get other micros working in the museum such as:
Getting the floppy drive working on the TRS-80 and run some demo on that machine. Getting an iPod to load programs into the Apple /. Getting the tape drive working on the Commodore PET etc.
