Yo

Even though the reply had a funny touch to it how else do you expect to have your collection survive you? Or don't you care about it? The main point was that there will allways (I hope) be other collectors willing to take on some else's collection there can even be a public distribution/sale or other for people interested. The thing I'm worried about is about my stuff ending in the trash (160 or so machines with peripherals and documentation) and I've specifically told my wife that if I die she should post a note on this very list and ask for help in disposing of it. She does consider my collection as a pile of junk but she also knows that this is not the opinion of everyone. Actually I am thinking of adding something to that nature in my will. I allways tink that I have time to think about it (I'm 34) but you never know... If you worry and value the conservation of your machines you should take the same dispositions and make sure that none is lost. Francois
