Last Saturday, 2025-03-01, we had the Spanish QL Users Meeting 2025 at the Museum of Computer History.

We arrived on Friday to drop off the computers at the Museum, and from there we went to dinner with Carlos, the founder of the MHC and the board of directors of the friends of the museum.

The next day we gave Carlos a robe with the museum logo, and we began the tour of the large exhibition hall, which took us an hour and a half. After that, and having tinkered with what we could, we had a meal of appetizers with ham Serrano, Torta del Casar cheese, sausages, bread and drinks in the facilities themselves, all courtesy of the museum and the friends of the museum.

After lunch, the friends of the museum met to discuss the strategy to follow in future events.

Afterwards, I conducted an interview with Carlos that will be published soon, in which we were able to get to know a little more about the person who has carried out this incredible madness that is the museum.

After that, Carlos went around all the tables recording our explanations about the material we had brought. It will also be available online soon.

With a few scares with the hardware that didn't work, and having messed up just enough, we said goodbye to the museum and our friends, but not before playing a game of the Out-Run arcade game.

We really enjoyed it.
