I'm envious that the author has had the opportunity to visit all of these museums, as they all seem wonderful in their own way (well, not including those on the "Anti recommendations" list).
Great bunch of photos to flip through, thanks for posting this! Ones that caught my eye for who knows what reason: Seattle's Connections Museum and Bob Paquette’s Microphone Museum in Milwaukee

I was a bit confused because I thought the author was using “tech” to mean computers, as it seems the world has gone to define it; seeing railway cars made me think I got to the wrong page or something. It doesn’t help that after the first few it’s almost entirely computer museums. It would have really helped if the author spent more time talking what the museum is actually about. I literally walked away not knowing what the point of ACME is. And when it came to the computing museums it would have been nice to know what the purpose of them was as well. What stories did they try to tell? Were they focused on the advancement of processor design, the stories of the major players of history, a visual compendium of industrial design, or what? That is what would make me go to a museum, not the stylish layouts or size of the collection.
