[WarpCast] OS/2 eBay Report - 8/02/99 |
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@Dell.com) 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 interest. There appears to be a new auction site that caters to OS/2 users: Yahoo! Auctions. If you go to http://auctions.yahoo.com/27743-category-leaf.html?&alocale=1us&acc=us you'll see a very small listing of OS/2 software. The only item of interest is "Talk Thru for OS/2", which appears to be some kind of cross-platform terminal emulator (e.g. VT100) On eBay, there are several copies of OS/2 2.x, Warp 3, Warp 4, and Lotus applications available for sale. There are also a number of OS/2 books available. Some guy thinks he can get $15 for OS/2 2.0 on 5.25" floppies :-) In the software category, we have: DB2/2 1.0, BackMaster, IBM AttachPak, DeScribe 5.0, Mesa 2, SPG:Colorworks, Galleria w/ Galleria/CM, IBM ServerGuide for OS/2 (and other NOS's), a combo of Relish + Graham Utils + OS2Tree Lite + a book, and LANTastic 6.0 for OS/2. There are also several OS/2 shareware/freeware CD's. For the collector, we have an OS/2 mousepad. For programmers, we have the Borland C++ 1.5 books (no software?), CA Realizer, the book OS/2 2.1 WPS programming, the book OS/2 Warp Programming for dummies, On comp.os.os2.marketplace, there's a collection of OS/2 software and books (under "Housecleaning (software mainly)"). Those of you looking to sell your OS/2 related stuff, I strongly recommend you put it on eBay or Yahoo! Auctions 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, search on the phrase ("OS/2",OS2), including the parentheses. Thanks go out to a number of people for emailing me this tip. -- Timur Tabi Workstation BIOS Engineer, Dell Computer ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
