The biggest Adobe boxed software Collection

[martinflash]

Hello
I have found this Adobe boxed software collection on a flea market near my town.
I have never seen anything like this before.

If anyone buys they are going to be upset when used program may not be activated on their account

For collectors that may be interesting, but most if not all are of no commercial value.

Old software is NOT collectible.  It belongs in the recycle bin; not sold at flee markets. 

I feel sorry for whoever buys this junk expecting it to work.  They'll be hugely disappointed when it a)  doesn't work and b) can't be re-sold.  😥

I collected my old software (well, mostly the empty boxes, as the rest got stored away in the safe of the IT department at the time). And, If I remember well, I still have my WordStar disks and documentation for my now defunct CP/M computer.

But yes, nobody should expect to get the software up and running (on modern computer systems…).

WordStar.  A blast from the past. Changed jobs. Went from dos-based MS Word 2 to WordStar and hated it.  They offered me WordPerfect to which I said, "thanks, but no thanks."  Later, I got a PC with MS Word and life was good again.  🙂

I doubt that MS Word was out at that time, when I did work with WordStar on my CP/M machine. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WordStar

The non-profit had old software on old equipment from the 80's (probably donated).  They still used ditto, too.  😞   So yeah, Word was available but I had to plod along on WordStar until the Board gave me a decent budget to work with.
