A day or so ago, I wrote
I recently came into possession of a relatively large
pile of
on-topic stuff, and have some of my own that I want to get rid of.
followed by a list of stuff.
I was surprised (and in most respects pleased) at the response. By the
time I woke up and checked my mail, I had six replies, one of whom was
local enough to pick things up in person, and interested in enough of
the stuff to be willing to take it all; there was a seventh reply I
discovered only a great deal later, being stopped for lack of reverse
DNS, which (perhaps fortunately) would not have arrived early enough to
make any difference even if the rDNS issue hadn't arisen.
I was a bit surprised by the interest the Bytesaver generated; of the
seven replies, six wanted it. :-)
Anyway, it's all spoken for now.
One response expressed surprise that I was willing to let any of it go.
This really isn't all that hard to understand, once you learn a few
things about me and look at it right. I am primarily a Unix hacker,
and as such, anything that can't run something Unixy is significantly
less interesting to me. I took the stuff when its previous owner was
tossing it more to save it from being scrapped if I could than because
I wanted it for myself (I knew classiccmpers would probably want much
of it). Also, my free-space budget was overdrawn even before the pile
of old stuff arrived; it then became _severely_ overdrawn, and getting
rid of things became fairly critical.
It's going to be good to get my living room back. :-)
