Vintage software diskettes and CDs

[bhayhow]

I'm looking to get rid of a collection of software installation disks dating to the mid 1990s. Before just tossing them in the trash, I'm exploring whether anyone collects such treasures. I see some of this software is being sold via eBay, but I wonder if there might be a better home for my collection. I would appreciate any suggestions this group might offer.

My collection includes early versions of both common and some uncommon software:

- MS-Dos, Windows 3.0, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT
- Office 95, Office 97, Outlook 97, FrontPage 97, FrontPage 98, Office 2000, Office 2003, Access 2003
- Lotus 123, Lotus SmartSuite
- Visual Basic 5, Visual Studio 6, Visual Studio 2003\
- Macromedia Flash and Dreamweater
- MicroGrafix Picture Publisher and Webtricity
- Corel Draw, HotMetal Pro, WebCompass
- Netscape FastTrack Server, Netscape Communication Server
- SendMail, CyberCash
- Compuserve, Voyager, Internet Valet, classTools, Website

I also have manuals for some of these titles.

See attached for details.

Are you from Europe? That's a really cool collection.

I live in Poland, so that's far. But i could pay for the shipping if you are okay with sending it.

I found a worthy destination for my collection - The Internet Archive - Historical Software Collection (https://archive.org/details/historicalsoftware).

Nice! O'Reilly WebSite was very hard to find when I looked recently. I think I managed to find one shareware version on a magazine cover CD.
