Hi Folks!...
Still trying to move this list!! Everything is $10 each and must be sold so I
can pay some bills. Reductions will be considered ONLY if you're buying more
than one item. All items are diskette format. They were bought before I owned
a CD equipped machine.

The Canadian postal system is on strike with the workers threatening to move
possibly violent defiance to the streets if they are ordered back to work. If
you're not local to me I don't know how I would get it to you other than
FedEx or UPS. Shipping would be extra by whatever method. I'm not a store and
I just can't afford to eat the cost.
Call +1 (613) 829-0609 or use one of the e-mail addresses in the signature
block.
