    I have a few spares:
    Windows NT4 Workstation
    Mac OS X 10.1
    IBM OS/2 2.0 Full version
    IBM OS/2 2.1 for Windows
    IBM OS/2 3.0 Full Version
    The OS/2s will run a bit high on shipping due to the weight, OS2 2.0 and warp are on floppies the rest are CD-ROMs. I also have an empty Windows XP home edition upgrade box.
    Toss me an offer if you want them.

    Windows XP to Vista 32bit upgrade disc. Not being used, so serial should work.

    There are always loads on eBay, although they go for big bucks now as collectors are after them. A lesson to all - don't sell your old boxed software for peanuts! ;-)

    Yes. someday I should post my operating system collection, I have somewhere around 25 OSes by now, including a warez disc that has Windows NT5 Build 1515, which is the earliest known version of Windows 2000.

    I only ask because I have a bunch of Cisco and MS discs that are pretty much out-dated but I can't bring myself to throw them out.
