LGR video - Exploring a MASSIVE Retro Computer Warehouse!
Not sure if anyone saw this. It is a video of a guy on YouTube exploring a now mostly-closed place called "Computer Reset". It looks to be a place where they repaired computers as well as bought old computers and more. Some of the stuff is vintage stuff new in box. It puts Kemner's to shame. They are open to collector's and in the last part of the video they mention an apparent willingness to give/sell things to museums so I thought I would pass this along. If nothing else it is very interesting to watch. The catch is it is near Dallas, TX so that likely makes it a non-starter for most. But I believe there is a VCF-midwest who might be made aware of it. Enjoy! David
I've been hearing about that place for the past month or two, I think its been picked over, even by the mechanical keyboard hoarders. There might still be something good left, though. On 8/16/2019 12:27 PM, David K via vcf-midatlantic wrote:

Yes, there are a number of people from the Apple II and vintage computer enthusiasts Facebook groups that have made some pilgrimages there already. Tony Sent from my iPhone

Yep, we know about it. We were even offered an early opportunity to go down there with a truck and get everything... we declined. On Fri, Aug 16, 2019, 12:27 PM David K via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
