I am continuing to clean out stuff from my office and today's items are
printed copies of the USENIX publications Computing Systems (early 90s)
and ;login: (late 90s). The content is available online, but some people
like the printed versions.
I prefer to send them all out in one lot rather than send them out
one-at-a-time.
They are located in the Seattle area. As far as shipping, I think they
would all fit in a large flat-rate priority mail box.

Is this known for sure? Good scans?

Someone asked me about the online versions. If you are interested in
them, they can be found at:
https://www.usenix.org/legacy/publications/compsystems/compsystems.html
and

One thing that I have not found online is an image for an audio CD that
accompanied one of the issues of Computing Systems. I think it is audio.

Usenix wasn't good at archiving.
I was told they were given a set of early conference proceedings and tossed them.
Would be good for people to keep an eye out for them.
We don't have a complete set either

It is. And I have a copy here somewhere. Given permission I could
probably make an ISO for archiving purposes.
