You sure wouldn't have to worry what to do with your spare time the next 10, 20 years. If you manage to catalog and sell 50 items a day you would be busy for 13.69 years (leap years not counted ;-). But seriously, if this auction provides anything, than it is attention to a hobby still taken not seriously by most. People find it normal to collect dolls filled with beans, but old software? Well, perhaps in the future we will all meet at Sotheby's ;-) Marco ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent to you because you are currently subscribed to the swcollect mailing list.
