discard-books-computer-28-1

More obsolete computer manuals. I thought I had discarded the whole set before I started this exercise. Apparently not.

discard-books-28-4

Yep, more obsolete computer manuals. And a book on OS/2 Warp programming.

 discard-books-28-8

More obsolete computer and electronic books. The book on Electronic Circuit Design was pretty lame when I bought it – age has not improved it.

 discard-books-28-3

Obsolete manual for obsolete hardware.

discard-books-28-7

The Pixilated Peeress is not a bad read. Fairly standard story / plot, but L. Sprague de Camp is masterful in his use of language – assuming you like that sort of thing. The Stones of Nomuru is, again, not a bad read, but certainly not something I am going to read again. Logan’s World was a really bad sequel to the original Logan’s Run (and, when I find my copy of Logan’s run, I’ll probably get rid of it too).

 discard-books-misc-28-1

Lost Souls was a good read up until the end, when the story all of a sudden ends, characters suddenly no longer behave the way the did for the first 95% of the book. Definitely not worth rereading. "Did You Spot the Gorilla? is a fairly good read, gets you with a number of “tricks”, but nothing about it makes me want to keep or reread it. I could not get into The Fishers of Darksea so I never finished reading it. And an obsolete game programming manual.

discard-books-28-6

Received these during a company secret Santa gift exchange. Don’t know why people thing I am into these sorts of things (probably because I am serious and analytical, with awkward social skills).

discard-books-28-5

Yet another obsolete computer manual. Jump Start Your Brain doesn’t really do it for me – and, at over 400 pages, I found it too long (my preference is for books that are generally under 200 pages).

Yes, there is advertising. The web hosting costs $5.95 per month and the domain name $10.45 per year (plus applicable taxes). Hopefully, the ads will, over the course of a year, pay for the cost of the website.
