I spent today traveling up the state to pick up some stuff that was going
out to be recycled or junked. Some of you who were at the VCF may remember
someone came to the VCF with some S-100 stuff, saw that I was the only one
(at that time) with S-100 stuff and gave it to me. I sold some of it for
him, but in the ensuing conversation, it turned out a friend of his had
died, and his family was sending all his old magazines, etc. to the
recycler.
*FORTUNATELY* when I was talking to him, I indicated an interest in the
older stuff, and he went back to see what he could salvage before it hit the
recycler. Way too much stuff to mention (and I haven't gone through it yet,
but one of the things I was really happy to get were volumes I through VIII
of the Conference Proceedings for the West Coast Computer Faires. Included
was also a number of the Computer Faire programs starting with the second,
and going up to the 15th or so (and missing some in between.) Also included
were early Popular Electronics (I'm told missing the Jan/Feb 75 issues),
early Bytes, a CREI Logic trainer and manuals, Heathkit H19, Heathkit H89A,
most of the Heathkit manuals, etc., etc., etc. Total volume was 25 cubic
feet.
