• Sales brochures from the Computer History Museum. Includes The Raytheon Computer Armchair Shopper, which sounds better than it is.
• Atari books
• An unplayable demo of Planetfall 2. Another "sounds better than it is", actually.
• Games on the C64, Amiga, BBC Micro. Remakes of same.
• The first DDR game machine.
