The museum at IBM\u2019s Hursley Park location exists to help preserve IBM\u2019s historical heritage.. It contains various artefacts developed at the IBM Hursley lab and also other hardware from the company\u2019s beginnings through to the PC and PS\/2 eras and beyond. Staff on-site can visit the museum at any time and customer groups are often shown around the Museum during visits to the Executive Briefing Centre. Due to its location inside the IBM development laboratory, the Museum is not open to the general public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hursley room is dedicated to products developed by the Laboratory and displays the few artefacts that still survive.
