Ok, so here's the deal. Dr. Paul has recently hooked me up with Tex Murphy flash drive and I am forever in his debt for such a cool, kick ass gift of Tex-dom. And because of said gift, I am no longer going forward with my quest to collect all the Tex games in the world (and I was so close -- sigh). Anyhoo, I have decided that I am going to sell my collection of Tex Murphy games and other "Tex Thangs" but I thought I would come on here and post to you fine online folks to see if anyone is interested in what I have. It's not much, but it's still Tex. Just PM me if you are interested in what I might be getting rid of. Thanks guys. See ya.

I do not understand why the flash pack would prompt you to sell your other Tex stuff.
Who knows how long those flash drives are stable for? Magnetic fields and all that...

Yeah, I wouldn't be so hasty to go getting rid of anything, especially the ones you've collected that are still in the original packaging and whatnot... If this new project of AC's and CJ's takes off and they are able to fund a new Tex Game it could go crazy and before you know it all those older games could become collectibles that are worth a pretty penny...

Just get yourself a plastic Tote, put the Tex stuff in it and store it out in the shed or in the basement/crawlspace or somewhere... Plastic is way better than Cardboard, so make sure you use plastic...

Doc, you should let us know how you do it exactly, cause I would like to make one for myself.

I have my reasons...they are dark and personal....or selfish and greed motivated...regardless, it must be done.

Absolutely. I want to do this. The procedure is only a little modification of the procedure described in Glenn's Guides to Retro Gaming. However, I want to make sure that I post the instructions very carefully and completely. The problem is that, ever since I started teaching that Astronomy class, I haven't had a moment's free time. It's taking up almost all of what used to be my fun time.
