I got my "InfoMagic Developer's Resource" (4 CD set), August 95 edition, at 
Downtown Software in La Trobe street; they said it had come just before I 
walked in, actually. Price was $39, which is a bit more than you can get it for 
at some other places (a friend just bought the November one from Leonard Chan 
for $24 odd I think), but it's convenient.

Downtown seem to be pretty good. I tried Software Express first, and they said 
"we don't sell shareware." Apart from being extremely insulting to the whole 
project in general, I picked up "Hobbes Archived" there for a few friend a few 
months earlier (it's an OS/2 shareware collection from Walnut Creek). Computers 
Click Here didn't have it, only the Walnut Creek slackware for about $60, and 
various FreeBSDs.
