So I'm from Portugal, and where i work, the guys from the IT department made a small museum with some of the computers used back in the day, so i'm just gonna leave the pictures here maybe some folks can help me id some stuff, and feel free to ask for detailed photos on any device(except internals)
I literally begged for this keyboard, but saddly they did not accept my request

Begged. Begged!
Very impressive collection they have there. Must take up a whole lot of space. Each picture kept expanding my estimate.
Of course, you know some evil bean counter will arrive someday and have the lot sent out for scrap. That's the trouble with bosses and wives…
It even happens at the computer companies who built it.

It is very unlikelly since that collection has been there for some years now, i can ask how many since it was already here when i started...but if someday it goes to scrap, it will go by my hands first everything related to computers that gets trown away is kept in a room until the end of each month, and i have access to it, from that point on i can have it if i want

Awesome collection Don't take any vacations ever and no sick days either ... or if you do, have your local landfill address handy ... beware of any higher-ups that walk around with phablets ...

Fantástico! It's especially fun to see Model M's still "deployed" with their original systems. I also really like the Frankenstein-style calculator-typewriter, whatever the heck it is!
