I'm not sure if this is old news or not, but it may be of benefit
for those who do not know.
The Federated stores in the Houston area are running some incredible
sales on ST software. I managed to pick up the entire INFOCOM series
for the ST at $1.96/package. Note that the articles for sale are in the
older boxes, that is, the good ones (!). For example, Hitchhiker's Guide
to the Galaxy is in the large box, complete with Fluff, sunshades, "Don't
Panic button, etc. These are not in any of the newer packages.
I was also able to find a lot of older and GOOD software that is no
longer made for the ST. Sort of sad, like reading a time capsule's contents.
These even had warranty cards for them. Lots of Holms and Duckworth
utility programs.... Lots of software of the 1986 era, also, when things
were exciting for the ST at the local market.
At any rate, all appear to be new boxes, in other words, not rewrapped
or reshrink-wrapped. All were cheap. I blew $26.00 on twelve pieces of
software.
So, if there are any Federated in your area, you might check them
out. We went to this particular Federated by sheer accident not knowing that
it was holding the clear-out sale.
