I've never worked with this stuff but I'm curious. There was a PC
versión, by the way.


This box contains a sleeve for a PC demo version but sadly the floppies 
are not included.





I've live in Europe but if no one want it I could be. It's sad the
lack of software.


Note the software itself doesn't seem to be in the box.

If there is real interest in the contents of the binders then I do have 
means to scan them. But ultimately I don't want to store a big box of 
paper forever.

Hi,

I've had this box for a few years and wanted to see if it's interesting to
anyone on the list.

Apparently everything but the software itself. :/

If there is genuine interest I can list the contents of the box. It won't be
cheap to ship though. Located in Toronto, ON.

I should note, everything seems to date from about 1986. It was the VAX 
version and there is a bunch of VAX specific material, including the 
"COGNOS pocket guide for VAX/VMS minicomputers".
