Probably.
   Therein is a *cornucopia* of still useful information.  The magazines 
are "must have", I'd think, if we want to lay claim to a "museum".

I own Vols 1-3 of "OS/2 Magazine", complete save for volume-1 number-1. 
  Otherwise it's the whole enchilada, I think; every issue published. 
Got 'em a few years ago from Alan Zeichick (first Editor), who lives 
just across the Bay.

I virtually never loan mine.  It might be nice for us all to have 
circulating copies available??  Actually, as it is we've more of a 
Library than a Museum anyway.

I can absorb them, storage-wise (somehow).  Question is how to get them 
here.
   With your agreement, I can talk to Gord - we've been email friends 
for years.  See what he thinks it would cost to ship everything to my 
home, ...or wherever.
