So when we flew to Jeju Island, supposed to be South Korea's Hawaii for honeymooners, and nature enthusiasts who hike around the island, or to the Island's 2000m-ish peak, I had not exactly plannned to stumbled on a computer history museum, let along a good one...
I was impressed with artifacts they had,
