Historic Computers Brought Back From the Dead

"As the door opens, you can see not only the 1401s themselves, but the mechanical punch-card machine where they take instructions from the outside world, the towering drives where they store data on spinning spools of tape, and even the desk-sized printer where they funnel information onto good old-fashioned paper. There's a gentle hum in the room. You can feel the heat coming off the machines. And, yes, you can smell them too"

Technology has come so far in the last 40-50 years. Computers went from being machines that take up an entire room to an even more powerful machine that I carry in my pocket. 

I believe witnessing these computers in real life would be empowering. It shows just how much humans have the ability to create. In the past few decades our society has literally used math science and computers to turn imagination into reality.
