From the Days of Free Printing

Sep 09, 2009 18:34

Free printing for me at least, when I was in my first years of college.

I’m cleaning out my storage unit to try to move everything into the apartment. Among the things I’m throwing out are old manuals and documentation I printed like:

A Slackware install guide. No mention of version, but the print out date is “1/29/00 4:20 PM.”
“Introduction to Unix” from Ohio State University (1998).
Chapter 2 of O’Reilly’s “Internet Core Protocols: The Definitive Guide” printed “3/7/00 6:58 PM.”
http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/ip-parameters (now points to http://www.iana.org/assignments/ip-parameters) printed “3/7/00 4:12 PM.”
http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc1466.txt “Guidelines for Management of IP Address Space” printed “3/7/00 4:13 PM.”
Various chapters from something called “Internetworking Technology Overview, June 1999” that I think must have been from Cisco.
Chapter 23 “Windows 98 in Windows NT Domains” from ”Windows 98 Professional Reference” featuring the awesome line “For bigger networks…say, larger than either or nine PCs…”

Edit: I just found a folder full of RFCs that I printed (and read!). Weirdo.
