So...
I won an eBay auction for someone's miscellaneous Newton gear. Included
in the box were about 5 CDR's (somewhat well organized) of various
software and website archives. For me, everything I need for my Newton,
I have been able to find (and/or buy) on the web. So, the value I place
in these CDR's is not all that high.
But...
A quick look (at some the contents of these CDs) does show some
interesting items. Some of the folders appear to be archives of
long-gone websites organized by date of download. Other items include
quite a bit of software I've never seen on the web. It looks as though
most of the the stuff (actual file dates) are from about 1997-2001. The
folder modification dates are from 2003 (the burn date?).
Just curious...
Am I just looking at one of those eBay CD's that seem to be (always)
available?
or...
Have I stumbled upon a treasure-trove of bygone Newton memorabilia?
