[offer] does anybody care about old book CDs?

edited August 2016 in Offers & Requests
So I have a lot of 90s "dummies"-type books and a lot of them come with CD-ROMs, many with demo/shareware/evaluation software. For example, "Configuring Windows 2000" comes with VMWare for Windows NT/2000 and GimmIP, among other things. Does anybody care? Would dumping those be a waste of time?

Oh, and some of them have an ebook PDF on the disk, too. I don't know if anybody wants that either.

If nobody ends up caring, I've still got ABC Snapgraphics 2 and Mcafee Office, so it doesn't really matter too much.

  • Oh, and one of the book CDs comes with Visual Basic 6 Working Model. Forgot to mention that.
  • At the very least, I know the Internet Archive loves these kinds of discs.

    If the e-books are the complete printed book that the CD came with, they could be worthwhile.

    I personally think it would be great to have clean PDF copies of manuals for earlier software. It's not practical to scan a 500 page binded manual on using Visual Basic 3.0 or whatever.
