I cleaned up all the manuals in the building, tore the front covers off (since for some of our software at the time it was the only evidence of purchase) put all the covers in a box and trashed the rest. Gained miles and miles of shelfspace.

I'd gain a whole other stinkin' office if I could do that. But, I ain't in charge of the whole universe here like you are there! And I tend to like to eat... so I kinda follow *some* rules. you know, guidelines.
Although... it's about time to go sit in the weldshop again while I ponder driving home in ice in an hour.

Beside my desk, here at home, I have a 3ft wide built-in shelf unit that stretches from floor to ceiling. On those shelves, I see:
- XICS Between The Lines, XICS Level II class notes (several binders' worth);
- a box labeled Microsoft Mouse & EasyCAD2;
- dBase III Plus;
- Reflex
- ProSoft Fontasy;
- Two suede binders that came with my Kompak (now known as HewPaq) luggable;
- a SideKick manual;
- MS-DOS 3.3 user's guide and reference;
- Advanced MS-DOS;
- an XTree Pro manual;
- Programmer's Problem Solver For IBM PC, XT, and AT;
- Advanced C Programming On The IBM PC;
- C Programmer's Guide To Serial Communications;
- Turbo C and Stretching Turbo C;
- Microsoft Macro Assembler Bible, Zen of Assembly Language, and Zen of Code Optimization;
- Programming Windows 3.1 by Charles Petzold, and Windows 3.1: A Developer's Guide.
<chuckling> Jen, girlfriend, have you ever even seen Windows 3.1? What languages do you code?
