I wonder if those folks know the service they did for the next generation of computer professional? I remember the blue and green books they sent me. I poured over those things. Having some big company just send me books was amazing and really made me feel like I could be a programmer. Mine are in the same box as the NeXTSTEP documentation I would have as a professional.
That one little bone thrown to some nobody, poor kid in rural North Dakota was a lifesaver and light in the darkness.
