My dad brought home to me:
4x Boxed Copies of MS Word 6.0 for Windows
1x Boxed Windows 3.1 on floppies
and
1x Boxed MS Excel for Windows
Then he brought home 6 floppy boxes for mass storage of floppies. They are cardboard with compartments for each set of floppies and were designed for corporations to keep track of software
Stuff I *didn't* get:
45 thousand dollars of BOXED recent software including:
unopened Windows 2k/XP/Server of each
These were all thrown into the trash compactor before my dad could get it :S It sucks, especially of unopened XP pro and Server

nope, sorry it's not april fools. 🙁
My dad said the office he worked for was moving. so they were getting rid of stuff, but no one hardly works there, and no one wanted to claim them. Which downright sucks, but my dad got there as they had thrown most of them out (my dad works for them part-time) My dad DID claim some all-metal shelves. So it's cool that he got some $300+ worth of industrial shelving. But I also got another acquisition. (money!) I sold my wallstreet I Had (I still got the lombard) with wifi, apple mouse, and new PRAM and wifi for $120. not bad...

Could I get you to image those Windows 3.1 disks for me?
I would love to have a copy of Win 3.1 again.
Thanks!
