The museum was founded by Lonnie Mimms, a commercial real estate developer and longtime computing artifact collector,[2] who originally operated an Apple pop up museum, and includes rare artifacts including a Cray-1, Apple I, Apple Lisa, a Pixar Image Computer, an Enigma, a Xerox Alto, a MITS Altair 8800 and more. The collection includes the contents of the former Bugbook Historical Computer Museum. While the museum shows many items, they are only a fraction of his 300,000 plus in the collection.[3][4][5][6]
