Should we buy a brick for ourselves? Either in the name of VICCA or CPU-World?
If 50 of us chipped in $50.00 each we could get a gigabyte plaque
If 20 of us chipped in $50.00 each we could get a megabyte brick

Total Collectors in for $50.00 = 11

That would be awsome, I wonder if they might give us a discount since we help to promote and support the vintage hardware that they are storing in their museum. And I am sure we could help to contribute information and stuff with and for them. Maybe we could even convince them to start a seperate wing just for the evolution of the CPU, since it is the backbone of almost all the machines that they will have on display. Just some random thoughts
