ok, i spike too soon
what i have (and am willing to admit to :-):
ed 2 cd and floppy set
ed 3 cd, box and manuals - i don’t believe there was a 3rd floppy, perhaps Charles can confirm?
there was a demo floppy for the 1st and 2nd edition. i had the demo for the 1st but can no longer find it.
SL has the 2nd ed demo floppy available on his site:
http://plan9.stanleylieber.com/1995/
he also had the 2nd ed floppy images.
