   Hello Anna!   
      
    AA>> Now, sadly, all that software and their respective media must go

    ACN> Why is it a "must"?   
      
   I don't see the point in listing all the retro stuff on ebay for     
   example and hoping to sell.  Listing, pricing, packaging     
   requires a lot of extra time to manage and organize.   
      
   I even have a copy of the book OS/2 2.1 Unleashed.  I see a     
   listing on ebay for $11 + $25 s/h.  I have a sealed box of Lotus     
   Smartsuite 1.1 for OS/2.   OH so much more!   
      
   At this point I think it would be better that if I touch any of     
   that stuff again it would be for the last time - out the door -     
   and be done with it.  To sort it, price it, watch for bids and     
   offers requires far too much time and extra organized space.   
      
   What good is all that old stuff?
