NO!!!!

Sorry, but I object to technical museums that present replicas (and
emulators hidden inside the case of an older machine, and...) as the real
thing. You would not accept an art gallery that showed copies of the
famous paintings, you shouldn't accept it for computers either.

If I go to a museum it's because I want to see the real machine -- one I
don't happen to already have. I don't want to see a fake.
