stormdogI'm going through the computer room like an explorer with a machete in darkest Africa. Here are more things that I need to get rid of in the interest of narrowing my foci to things I will actually do and have time for. This time, it's a round of computer-related books. If you want any or all of these, please speak up.
Microsoft Press SQL Server 7.0 System Administration Training Kit. This is from Windows NT days. It includes the book and CD ROMs.
Exam Cram NT Server 4 and NT Workstation 4 books for old MCSE exams.
The Java 2 Black Book by Steven Holzner. Copyright is 2001.
Learning C++ by Tom Swan. Copyright 1992.
The Waite Group's C++ Programming, Second Edition, by John Thomas Berry. Copyright 1992.
Turbo C/C++ the Complete Reference by Herbert Schildt. Borland Publications, Copyright 1990. Included in the back of the book is, yes, a five-and-a-quarter floppy disk, sealed and unopened in its little pocket.
Borland C++ Programmer's Reference by James W. McCord. Copyright 1991.
Just Java by Peter van der Linden. Copyright 1996, included CD-ROM.
Teach Yourself Java 1.1 in 21 Days by Laura Lemay and Charles L. Perkins. Copyright 1997, CD-ROM missing.
Hardcore Visual Basic, Second Edition by Bruce McKinney. Copyright 1997. CD-ROM included.
Programming your Apple II Computer by Paul Bryan. Copyright 1982. No CD-ROM. Heh.
Computer Olympics, by Stephen Manes and Paul Somerson. This is a thrift-store find and includes programs for the Commodore 64, Vic 20, Apple II, PCjr, Atari 400 and 800, etc... It's a tie-in with the 1984 Olympic Games.
Pocket PCRef by Thomas J Glover and Millie M. Young.
Linux for Dummies, Second Edition by Jon "maddog" Hall. Copyright 1999. CD-ROM included.
The C Programming Language by Brian W Kernighan and Dinnis M. Ritchie. Copyright 1978. This is older than me and is copyright Bell Labs!
Exam Cram Proxy Server 2 for some old MCSE exam. Copyright 1999.
Official Redhat Linux 6.1 Operating System Reference Guide.
A+ Certification for Dummies, Copyright 2004. CD-ROM included.
Microsoft Official Coursebook: Managing a Microsoft Windows 2000 Network Environment.
Microsoft Official Coursebook: Implementing Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional and Server.
Microsoft Official Coursebook: Fundamentals of Network Security.
And I have the course materials I got while going through the Cyber-Defender program at New Horizons in Michigan. These are books made by the school to accompany their instructional classes, but they have good, if possibly outdated, info in them anyway. I have materials on A+ certification and Network+ certification. Also, CCNA lab books.
GW-Basic 3.22 User's Guide and User's Reference. Copyright 1986
MS-DOS 3.30 Users's Guide and User's Reference. Copyright 1987
Microsoft MS-DOS 6 User's Guide. Copyright 1993.
Essential Sharepoint by Jeff Webb. Copyright 2005.
Upgrading and Repairing PCs by Scott Mueller. Copyright 1988. The cover has a picture of a disassembled IBM AT with full length ISA cards and a 5 and a quarter floppy drive. Awesome. There are great prices in here too. For instance: "PC system unit, 256K, one double-sided drive. Price, $1,845." This might be a great historical reference for something.
The Diablo II Official Strategy Guide. I doubt there's anything in here that can't be found for free online.
How To Make Money With Your Micro by Herman Holtz. Copyright 1984. If it wasn't impossible for me to bring myself to damage a book, I think I'd frame the excellent cover of this one, which shows a woman sitting in front of an ancient IBM PC with a huge stream of paper currency flying out of the top of the monitor.
Creating Web Pages for Kids and Parents by Greg Holden. Copyright 1997. I think this is the book I read through as I created my first web page back on Tripod when I was in high school.
Using MS-DOS 6. Copyright 1993.
Exam Cram CCNA Third Edition. Copyright 2008. This might actually be useful. Maybe.
Exam Cram NT Server 4 in the Enterprise. Copyright 2000.
Exam Cram TCP/IP. Copyright 2000.
Teach Yourself Perl in 21 Days. Copyright 1995.
Also, not a book, but I have an original Creative Labs Sound Blaster in its original box with docs. Not a Sound Blaster 16, or 32, or AWE, or anything else. A plain old Sound Blaster.
----
Any of these that nobody wants (which I expect will be just about all of them) will be donated to Goodwill sometime next week.
Goddess. How did I accumulate all of this crap??
And no, I never did manage to learn to program worth a damn in Visual Basic, C, C++, Java, or anything else. *sighs*
