Cleaning out at my parents' house over Thanksgiving, I ran across these tucked away in the back corner of a closet. Looking around the Internet, I couldn't find that many examples of them for sale on eBay and elsewhere, but some appeared to go for maybe $10 here and there.

This is the full set of Apple //c System manuals and floppies, along with software such as the old Flight Simulator II, Spellworks, MasterType, PrintShop and Graphics Libraries, Apple Pascal, and Music Construction Set. There's Imagewriter stuff, too. I have no idea if the disks are still readable.

From what I've found, it seems like more work to try and sell them online than it is to send them to the Great Recycling Bin in the Sky, but just wanted to be sure I wasn't missing something.

And, if anyone here is interested in the lot, make me an offer + shipping, and I'll have it sent to you.

If anything, it was a fun trip down Memory Lane.
