in reply to Hording books and manuals.

Each time I move I dump about 20% old computer refs. Last move I finally ridded myself of FoxPro and about most of my M$ Foundation Classes books, a subject I started to learn about 5 times. I haven't had the urge to start again for several years, but having so many MFC books I had to keep the 'best' one.

My favorite book I have no use for is an RPG III manual. It's survived 3 moves in 15 years. I touched it 6 times, pack, unpack, pack, unpack, pack, unpack. It must have cost a fortune, I forget.

I know that DOS 6.3 manual will be useful one day...
