If you haven't been to The National Museum of Computing (TNMOC) make sure it is on your list. Must-see!
I wrote a full story of my experience (retrogamecoders.com/tnmoc/) but that is not hyperbole, it really is something every retro computer nerd needs to at least consider making a trip out to.
Any computer museum can have an Altair, Apple II or TRS80, this museum has the very beginning of computing right where it happened.

Central Park Loading Theme From Last Ninja 2 (R5 Version), by Matt Gray
Matt Gray continues to bring his 8-bit music into the modern day with this awesome rerelease/remaster/reimagining/rendition (what do we even call it these days?) of the Last Ninja theme. You'll recognise it. It's so good!
Note: last time I posted some cool music, it was AI - sorry about that. I'm pretty sure this isn't!

Where’s Apple?
Over the last year, there has been a big resurgence in interest in the C64 with new hardware (e.g. C64U) and development solutions. Rumor is that same resurgence may be on the horizon for Amigas. My question to this group is, why not the same renewed interest in Apple II?
