obsolete software

Does anyone want my old Infocom games? I have about a dozen, none of which are probably still runnable (I bought them for Amiga, Commodore 64, and a really old IBM PC), but some people are still nostalgic for the packaging.
Also: Ultima games, Magnetic Scrolls games, LucasArts Adventures, Pinball Construction Set. And for somewhat more modern systems: StarCraft, Battle Realms, Acid 2.0, Scrabble, Painter 6 (upgrade), Neverwinter Nights, and the first two versions of Cakewalk Sonar.
I'm not good at throwing stuff out.

Date: 2005-10-03 01:21 am (UTC)Wishbringer had "The Legend of Wishbringer," a local history publication of the Festeron Free Public Library; the letter that you are supposed to deliver at the beginning of the story; and a map of the postal zones of Festeron, Antharia, and vicinity. And a glow-in-the-dark plastic "stone," which I seem to have lost.
Hitchhiker's Guide had an advertising brochure for the Guide; an official Order for Destruction of your house; what must be an official Order for Destruction of your planet; and peril-sensitive sunglasses.
In addition to those two, I have Starcross, Suspended, Border Zone, Planetfall, and Sorcerer; Deadline and Suspended in the cheap early editions they made for the C-64; the Zork Trilogy; the Zork Anthology (with Zork Zero and the slightly graphical Beyond Zork); the three highly graphical, mostly lame post-golden-age Zork games; and The Lost Treasures of Infocom, possibly both volumes. LTOI just has thick books with what might as well be photocopies of the original materials, though; I wouldn't bother.
Let me know what you'd like.
