Now you guys are going to think I'm a pack rat.
When I first started at my current company, we received a mysterious box of
stuff that no one remembered requesting or paying for. The box contained:
CF Pro NT 4.5 - NFR plus one evaluation copy
CFPro Solaris 4.0.1
CF Studio 4.5 - NFR
JRun 2.3.3 - NFR
Homesite 4.5 - NFR
Skillbuilding - NFR
Locale Search Pack - NFR
product boxes HomeSite, Server, Studio, Skillbuilding
Administering CF Server book
Developing We Apps w/ CF book
CFML Language Reference 4.5 book
Quick reference Guide to CFML book
Using CF Studio book
Skillbuilding Workbook
Using Homesite 4.5 manual
I know this because the durn thing came with a packing list, which also
listed serial numbers for the NFR software, which we didn't actually
install anywhere until I got this computer. I brought a copy of the packing
list with me when I moved so I would be able to install and reinstall at
will. When you said "We get lots of free software" I looked around and the
packing list was right next to my monitor. Ding ding ding!
In the past we also received random boxes containing t-shirts although that
was before my time.
Maybe I should clean my room sometime soon...
