Paul Allen's Living Computers Museum Permanently Closes, Auction Announced

The Seattle museum, known for its interactive vintage tech exhibits, will see its collection auctioned by Christie's with proceeds going to charity.

Living Computers Museum + Labs, founded by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, will not reopen after closing in 2020.
The museum featured hands-on exhibits of vintage computing systems, making it unique in its educational approach.
Over 150 items from the museum, including rare tech artifacts, will be auctioned by Christie's.
Proceeds from the auction will benefit charitable causes as directed by Allen's estate.
Fans and former patrons express disappointment, questioning the decision to close such a significant institution.
