Hi all,

I'm looking for any Apple II software which has not been imaged yet and
isn't already available on the regular Apple sites.  I'll pay 50 cents US
per disk image, so $25 for 50 disks.  This amount is not set in stone, so
possibly more, depending on what you have.  If the disk is rare, unusual or
otherwise special, I would pay up to $1 for that particular image on a case
by case basis.  If the disk is corrupt or has bad sectors, I'll pay 25 cents
assuming it's readable.  If my tools can't read it, I won't pay for it.  I
pay upon receipt of the disk images.  They must be sent to me privately as a
zip file attachment with a clear subject line indicating what they are.
Payment will be with Paypal only in US dollars.  Any kind of software is
welcome as long as it works with Echo speech.  If you want me to not share
it, let me know at the time you send it to me.  Disks which have already
been posted here or on any other site are not eligible.  The reason why I'm
doing this is to encourage people who have lots of disks not yet imaged to
get on the ball and get them done.  It's only a matter of time before the
disks go bad and can no longer be read, not to mention the drives and
machines themselves.  I'm hoping to get as much software out there as
possible.  I will decide where and how to distribute the disk images once I
inspect them and send payment.  If you don't want them shared, let me know
at the time you send them.  I don't have to share every image received.

If you have questions, you can reply here or write me privately.  Please
send disk images as a big zip file to tony.baechler at gmail.com with a clear
subject line.  Disks posted to this list will not count as this is a public
mailing list.  If you don't get a response within 48 hours, send instead to
tony at baechler.net.  Sometimes Gmail loses attachments for no good reason.
