You should put this notice in the clipper news group.

There are still a bunch of blokes there clinging to their 16 bit loves
of their lives...

Geoff

this was the reply i had from one of the biggest collections of
hardware and software in the us.

"None of those systems are worth keeping, but please recycle them
responsibly.
Thanks - Steven Stengel, http://oldcomputers.net"

so it is all destined for the tip ... just amazing how much paper and
manuals and disks came with software in the "auld days" - word perfect
4 - yes, been with them a long time - had FIFTY floppy disks ! But I
am keeping supercalc 4 [on just 5 floppies, incluing manual in word
perfect !] because even today there is not a single spreadsheet that
can match it ... mind you these days you would never even think of
using a spreadsheet for some of the applications which were written
for it.

few years ago i ditched the vo 1, and ca-ret manuals - a whole
frigging book case - much of it was still in its orinal wrapping -
unopened.
