Amazing museum with so much interlinked material covering the beginning of computing through Enigma and Bletchley Park to the era of personal computing. A whole section covered Apple's role in history with extensive examples of hardware. The story of robots, again from the beginning through to recent times. A further leg covers the early space era and how the computer related to its activities. Even managed to explain quantum computing and the future of AI. A number of significant items of original and unique exhibits that really bring it all to life with lots of interactive parts that interested a computer and sci fi buff as well as my family Finally a really good store with interesting books, games, toys and other less seen items. Had a great time, but did feel a bit old as I had used a number of the exhibits in my working career!!

I wish I'd given myself more time but I thought since it is a small museum I could move through in an hour. I was wrong. There's so much great info and an incredible display of different machines, I likely needed two hours to absorb it all. I'll remember for next time I'm in Bozeman. Definitely a stop for those who love history and technology.

Not a total surprise since this was so highly recommended by friends in Bozeman - but, WOW. Incredible assembly of items from 4,000 years ago up to current times. Really, if you have even a passing interest in computers, communication devices or coding, this museum should be top of list for you! I'm not a computer geek but I was fascinated. Great staff orientation to get you started too.

This museum is not far from the Museum of the Rockies or the MSU stadium and is tucked away in a business park. I never would have found it without my GPS. When I got there, I discovered I was the sole visitor for the morning and could move through seven or eight rooms at my own speed. The first two rooms are a history of the computer, then they have an Apple computer room, a NASA room, a personal computer/gaming room, a pop culture room and an enigma machine room (along with a focus on Turing’s decoding device). It was very cool and brought back memories of my first computer and how far technology has come. Had a blast.

If you think this museum contains only dusty iMacs, you're wrong! This place has something for just about everyone (except maybe luddite purists!). Subjects one might not normally associate with computing/calculations, such as weaving or movable type,

I didn’t expect to enjoy this museum as much as I did! I did not expect much since it was located on the MSU campus and looked like it was in an office building. It was packed full of interesting facts and incredible artifacts. It included electricity, computers and AI. Due to arriving late in the afternoon, we only had just over an hour to roam through; however, we could have used more time. It was well worth the time.

Great place - glad we found it - love this kind of stuff! Robots and computers, the Gutenberg press, even a Norton bombsight from WW2 (apparently a very rare, top secret artifact that my partner was over the moon to see in person). Thousands of years of human communication are all here, and they made it fun. GenXers can even revisit their childhood video games if so inclined.

This museum is truly a hidden gem! They pack a lot of fascinating material, displays, and insights into a relatively small place. Madelyne (sp?) gave an excellent introductory overview of the museum and its artifacts, chock full of great stories (ask about the display with Bill Gates' phone number). The tiny gift shop is also loaded with high quality books and items for all ages. We are so glad we stumbled across this and wound up spending much more time in it than we had originally planned. Enjoy!

Great museum with some really amazing and diverse exhibits telling the story of computing from ancient to the future. There's an Enigma encoder, a original first diy Apple computer signed by the Woz, and the US version of the most important computer ever, the ZX81. So many interesting exhibits with educational materials. Staff were friendly and helpful. The only thing missing are Acorn computers, the British ancestor of ARM RISC, the chip designers who made the modern world.
