Hello,
Before I consign the following books to be recycled I thought I would ask if they are any
use to anyone.
I do not want anything for them except postage, but they are heavy so might be expensive
to post from the UK.

Borland C++ V4 for Windows - Programmers Guide, User Guide, Library Ref, Debugger, DOS

I suspect that at least the Turbo BASIC and TASM manuals should be saved. The only Turbo
BASIC that I ever saw in the 80’s is the copy that I bought.
I’m not sure how useful the OpenVMS book is, but it is also somewhat uncommon. I recently
got a copy with some other books that I bought.

I double that. Turbo Basic and TASM manuals should be saved, especially the Turbo BASIC
one.
If Zane doesn’t want it, I would pay for shipping Turbo BASIC to 98671 zip code in the US.

I'd take it.
I can send you beer money, or could send you 2 or 3 bottles of local
beer. I'm living near Munich, Germany.
Sending beer will likely be quite more expensive than 5 pounds, but has
a fun factor bonus :-)

No problem to ship beer bottles, just pack them in diapers. We do this
all the time in the Norwegian homebrew competitions. Now, diapers are
the only thing really cheap in Norway.

What about cans? They don't shatter.
What? Too American? I mean I won't drink out of anything but glass. But dad used to
drink those tall boy Rheingold and Schaeffer. He was so nasty in the mornings.

Bottles of beer are perfectly shippable. I ordered bottled beer over the
mail plenty of times before. The trick is to use good packaging and
pack them well. Or go with cans if you don't trust your packaging skills
to reach the level of "Fedex Proof (TM)". ;-)
Kind regards,
Alex.

Hello Christian,
I have sent an email to your personal address (off list).
The comments about the beer seem to have started a thread, all good fun!!

Having paid personally for a Borland C++ compiler in the Windows 95 days, I
can confirm that the set of books can comfortably elevate a monitor by
about 14" when used as a monitor stand.
