    This museum has an astonishing collection of home micros and, what's more, these old computers are functional and available to use! An essential place to visit, to learn about the history of computers and the evolution of technology, or to relive the glory of 8/16-bit computing. The owners are also lovely people. They have created this place with care and love and it shows!

    I didn't really know what to expect, except for several old systems in working condition, and was happily surprised. Great collection of retro machines (computers and consoles, some VERY rare, quite beyond the set that we typically remember from that time), with applications and games at the ready. Vagelis and Katerina know and love their stuff, and are more than enthusiastic to share this - and how often do you end a guided tour playing Bubble Bobble with your host? Highly recommended for any retrolover, great experience for anyone interested in what came before what we perceive as computing today. I think anything less than the interactive tour is too brief.
