Yeah, same here; the trouble is that a lot of things that I deemed uninteresting and tossed out in the past turned out after the fact to be very interesting indeed for some other folks, as I discovered when I joined this list. And despite the general disdain for newer stuff and especially PC stuff, in 20 years that may also be interesting; now I don't dare throw anything out. Anyway, looks like they've found a new home and I hope that any interesting ones will be scanned & made available on the Web. Coincidentally and related to another recent thread on here, the first brochure I happened to pick up was from Techtran, who had a line of standalone and rack-mount RS-232 cassette and diskette units (Interacters); turns out I even have the remnants of one of their units in my junk pile. Think I'll keep the Russian (Cyrillic) Cromemco brochure though... mike ****************************************************************************** Date: Sat, 01 Mar 2008 08:35:11 -0800 From: Marvin Johnston <marvin at west.net> Subject: Re: Sales brochures, price lists etc. That is the same problem I have/had. I extablished a cutoff date recycled anything I didn't consider interesting after that. The sales brochures I generally kept, but for other stuff, I just put a cutoff date of sometime in the early 1980s for anything I considered common or not interesting.
