Even if only 5 pages out of the whole book are useful, it is worth a
donation.  Eg. I learned HTML from RFC, which nobody does anymore.  But,
for someone starting out, it may be of some value, even if he/she only
skims through the book.

Now, if it's about how to program PDP-11, it may still be useful to
someone with fireplace, out there in the Kitchener wilderness.

Most of them are really old now, and several are out of date, so we are thinking of recycling the ones that are not obviously useful. (There are other old books which we will definitely keep, such as the "UNIX Power Tools" ones.)
