I threw it all out
March 8, 2007
That’s right. I just threw out a decade’s worth of operating systems. Linux distributions, BSD disks, BeOS, Syllable, even the old SkyOS v2-3-4 disks many people begged me to put online (which I did not because that’s Robert Szeleney’s task, not mine). I threw it all out. Exit. Finito.
And that’s all I have left. Some Windows versions (NT, 95, ME, 2000, XP Pro, Vista 32bit as well as 64 bit), Office stuff, Mac stuff, Solaris 9 for my SPARC machine, and some other stuff. More than enough. Part of the image is blurred because I tend to write serial keys on the sides of the jewel cases.
It belongs in a museum !

You mean, you don’t have as many computer CDs left?

That’s still a nice collection you’ve got left.

OK, I’ll bite. Why not throw out NT, 95, ME, 2000, Vista too?

Because except for Vista (review copies), I actually paid for those?
