Hi all,

I have tons of SUN Solaris manuals which are now out of date
(Sol 2.5/2.4/2.3).

In my experience the paper manuals are never used, because of the
excellent online CD manuals.

Since all the PARC SUN equipment is on hardware/software maintence
with periodic upgrades etc tons of spare CD's as well
I understand I am not to distribute the old CD's etc( use as frisbes)
but what does everyone else do with the old manuals etc.
Is there a CD recycling centre somewhere ??

Should I throw the old manuals on the fire at home ???
Is there a need for Solaris manuals in a poor Third world country.
Should I take the books to Oxfam ?? :):)
NIS+ would make a good bedtime story dont you think :):)

any comments

Colin Johnston
