You don't see a collection like
this every day. Only serious collectors need apply.

Infocom had some of the best box contents ever. Hitchiker's Guide came with a microscopic fleet, pocket fluff, etc. Enchanter had an actual wax seal on a scroll. Stationfall came with a series of cards with the map of the station on it. If I had the money, I would consider these just for the boxes!

Wow! 5 1/4 disks! It's been ages since I've used one of those.

Serious collectors? It doesn't even include the flying saucer from starcross.

I do. Probably one of the few 3ghz machines with a 5.25 drive.
Course, any real infocom fan has the Masterpieces of Infocom.

Well, I have the Lost Adventures of Infocom, which contains most of those games. While it doesn't have all of the goodies, it does come with all the maps for the games.
