[WarpCast] OS/2 eBay Report - 7/19/99 |
Coming August 1999 -- Inet.Mail Pro 1.5 Virtual domains on a single ip address, increased performance, and more from the best mail server for OS/2. http://www.hethmon.com -- sales@hethmon.com ****************************** WarpCast ****************************** Source: Timur Tabi (timur@tabi.org) Moderator: Christopher B. Wright (wrightc@dtcweb.com) ********************************************************************** Every Monday, I'll be reporting on OS/2-related items for sale on http://www.ebay.com and the comp.os.os2.marketplace newsgroup. Even if you're not thinking about buying anything OS/2 related, you might find something that catches your interested. As always, there are copies of OS/2 2.x, Warp 3, Warp 4, and Lotus applications available for sale. In fact, this week there are a boatload of copies of OS/2 for sale, including a version from Microsoft (1.x) and the original 1.0 version. In the literature department, there are dozens of books. I'm no longer going to list them all, since they're are just too many. Most of the books are for older versions of OS/2, but pretty much any programming book is still valid (one of the reasons why I love programming for OS/2). In the software category, there are a few interesting items: Backmaster 2.0, Colorado Backup for OS/2, and McAfee Viruscan. Someone's also selling promotion items (pens and wings) from the Leonard Nimoy / Kate Mulgrew promotion. Now THAT brings back memories. For programmers, we have: the Brief editor for DOS and OS/2, IBM C Set++, and a couple OS/2 programming books. On comp.os.os2.marketplace, there are various versions of OS/2 for sale. For those of you who are wondering if there's any money in selling you're old OS/2 stuff, I can tell you that most items only go for a few dollars. However, there are exceptions. I recently sold my copy of Colorworks 2.0 and three plug-in kits for a grand total of $310. Those of you looking to sell your OS/2 related stuff, I strongly recommend you put it on eBay and post an announcement on comp.os.os2.marketplace. If you include the word "OS/2" in the title of your description, I'll see it and include it in the next report. If you're looking for OS/2 items on eBay, you should make two searches, one with the search term "OS/2" and another with the term "OS2". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
