Sorry, but I'm hanging on to my old computer manuals. The AIX manuals in particular have sentimemtal value for me.

OTOH, I have quite a few old computer magazines (from the 80's) like Byte, Infoworld, etc. I've been intending to get rid of them for some time now, but hated just to throw them away. They're in storage in a neighboring state right now, but my wife probably will be driving there in the next couple of weeks to pick up a few things. If you're interested, she could bring back the magazines and I can tell you exactly what I have. You're welcome to them if you want them.

Ah, yes, the RT/PC. That brings back some fond memories. My first exposure to Unix was with AIX on the RT. I still have some of those weird-sized RT AIX manuals around somewhere...

Ooh! Old manuals!

Would you be willing to part with them?

I am collecting old manuals, and old computing magazines. I even pay for postage, with a bit of warning that they're coming...

Entirely undersandable.

Would you be willing to xerox any "introduction" or "about" sections?

Sure. Let me know what you have and I'll tell you what I don't have...

Hi,

If you're really keen on old mags and manuals I'll go up to attic and look around. I know there are old SCO Xenix & TCP/IP, as well as Byte and Dr Dobbs
