dgilman | Brazos Valley Computer Museum RIP 2023

I’ve sold off a few business-oriented items and am donating a percentage of the sale to the Boys and Girls Club of Brazos County and the National Video Game Museum, who collected the rest of the collection – including the items on display at downtown Bryan.

I’ve disabled comments and will not be accepting any donations.

And “that’s all folks”.
