Subject: Re: Various Macs for Sale
I have a basement full of 68K boxed mac software (most cheaply purchased if
not free). In general it is easier to find boxed Mac software (atleast for
me) then to find the same software for the PC. Do Mac people keep their
older software while PC people tend to throw it out or something?
Mac OS 7.01 and 7.5.x is available free from Apples website, I don't think
any MS versions of DOS or Windows are available for free download (ofcourse
they are available on the net for pirating).

The problem with $10 mac's is $0 software. With a old PC you could
steal DOS and BASIC from good old Gates. :) They still may be usefull
for parts like CRT's and 68000's for the really old mac's.
