I would. The new building is huge and tickets are $30 for kids and $40 for adults (though I suspect that many of the visitors get discounted or free admission because their employers are corporate sponsors). It's still one of the most wonderful places in the world but it's a world away from the hundreds of small local museums in the UK which might charge as little as £2 to visit a handful of rooms displaying e.g. artifacts telling the history of the local area.

Is there any good uk computer museum, other than the cambridge one I am planning to visit? Just hope the brits is better in maintaining its legacy. I saw at least 2 European museum mentioned here.
The National Museum of Computing at Bletchley Park https://www.tnmoc.org/

The Science Museum in London has some pieces, such as Babbage’s first Difference Engine and a PDP-8. https://collection.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/search/categori...
