  • Abstract
    Stockholm, Sweden, is host to the Nobel Prize Museum (Nobelmuseet) as well as a top-notch science and technology museum center (Tekniska Museet). The museum recently completed a major project that documents the use of computers in Sweden from 1950 to 1980 (www.tekniskamuseet.se/1/192_en.html), and its archive is now a valuable repository of oral histories and other material in this area.
