If the country is the UK, then I suspect that there will be a sad pile of
manuals in the corner of some post sorting office, which will gather dust
well into the next millenium.

>You figure someone took the goods home or sold them to some fence.

Some fence to find an outlet for such merchandise.  My Symbolics stuff is
like friendship, beloved but without an identifiable price tag.

>So my friend wants me to help him describe the documentation for
>Genera 7!

A two foot deep stack of 8.5" x 11" paperback text manuals, about 40 in
number (if including the S-* products), weighing say 30lb, gray covering,
in English language, each having on the fist page or so, under the
Restricted Rights Legend, mention of Symbolics Inc.

The imagination chuckles as a picture floats into view of an old cobbler
and his ragged grandson, under the only lamp in a back street in Fez or
Mandalay, thumbing the bowls of Site Operations with glee as they savour
issues relating to multiple maintaining site matters or garbage collecter
tuning.
