- Let's take a trip to the System Source Swap Meet & Computer Museum! The swap meet was on July 22nd, 2023 at the System Source Computer Museum in Hunt Valley, MD. This was my first visit to the event and museum, it was amazing! I highly recommend coming to visit their amazing museum.

This channel is a gem! I love this kind of content! This museum for sure will enter on my wishlist when I fly to US.
Thank you - and yes, the museum is totally worth the visit!
Nice to see so many familiar faces were able to make it. I wish I could have been there myself.
Love, love, love this channel. Thanks for making trips like this and documenting them.
I dreaming that one day, we have the same museum in France ! So great !
Always great to see you, hang out, and geek out together! Thanks for the shout out!!
that's great wish I could go to such event,
I need to visit there; never been. I know the area well. Lived within 20 miles of it my entire life until I graduated from college.
i actually teared up when i saw the standalone G3 monitor in the first 0:56 seconds of the video. so many memories!
I have used a few of those computers, PC and Mac! I'll add this to my to do list.
10:30 - that crisp Anders Enger's sound 🤩
7:17 The tape cartridge counterpart to an 8" floppy.
This was right up the road from me and I didn't know about it! I wish I could have grabbed that Umax, one of those is on my wishlist.
All that's missing inside the museum are the mid-90's Apple lawn decors like Clarus the Dogcow and more.
Awesome!
What a feast for our eyes, this is so great to watch, especially for people in a different country (and continent) who would have never even known about this otherwise.
That music!! Anders Enger Jensen is a genius!
Fun!
Great Video!
@Mac84
Steve, love your shirt!
"Roses are Red,
Violets are Blue,
Unimplemented Trap!
Please reboot."
Wow that place is Graceland for vintage computer nerds! Will absolutely need to make a trip out there if I can ever get to than side of the country! Great video as always. VCF West next for me!
That Gateway keyboard at 3:21...I have that exact same one! Is that an SGI Octavia at 4:24? if so, it's the same model that saved Toy Story 2 from total deletion. Galyn Susman and Oren Jacobs tell a great version of THAT story.
Glad I could hook you up with some UMAX speakers to go with your Mac clones!
OMG it’s a bunch of me’s! 😀
Looks like it was great fun! Wish I was there! Oh, I was there! It was good to see you again Steve!
(how does one get 'friend' status from a Steve? :) )
Haha, sorry I forgot to snap a photo of us, I was busy stuffing my face with lunch. But rest assured you can’t escape our geeky friend group!
@@Mac84 I figured it was more of, you took most pics and video at the start, and I was there later... its all good :)
Oh man, I am so thoroughly jealous! Some beautiful stuff in there! I spotted my first laptop (the HP ZE something-or-other) and my second laptop the (Dell Inspiron 6400) in someones pile, and see the ended up on the Free table at some point! I'd have gladly bought those, I miss them so much! 😁 What's that adorable lil' thing at 1:06?
Instant subscribe! 💚
What an incredible museum! Thanks for the video
The StyleWriters were free, but the ink costs an arm and a leg 😅
I wish we had something like this in Florida…. Does anyone know any events like this in Florida?
VCF is having an event in Atlanta, GA this weekend: vcfed.org/events/otherevents/vintage-computer-festival-southeast/
@@Mac84thanks!!!
Is any autojumble or swap meet which sales similar type of old computer and parts??
Nice iicx box score. I have a broken one on the way. What was that se/30 with the flip down door? And was that an original apple I ?
Yes, an original Apple 1.
The SE/30 with the flip down door was a Tempest (military case), I believe a black painted version was in the Watchman movie.
@@Mac84 yeah I saw the tempest recently on their website. Surprised that’s an original apple 1 though and not a repro.
So sad that we don't swap meetings like this in Germany, but at least it's a good excuse to visit USA!
10:00 my man, you are NOT the 8-bit guy lol
I bought the music just like he did and got permission to use it as well. 🤷♂️
@@Mac84 if it were me, i would use it illegaly
