<p>There are a number of facebook groups about such, for one try:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/1233645553343772">https://www.facebook.com/groups/1233645553343772</a><br>
<br>
Also, there is the Computer History Museum in SF:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://computerhistory.org/">https://computerhistory.org/</a></p>
<p>Personally I have pallets of the stuff (yes, pallets, not just
boxes)<br>
and have been working to place some of them.</p>
<p>The issue with software on old disks (and any sort) is that they
very often get corrupted and so are not readable.<br>
There is a curator from the CHM who lives locally, I'll email him
if see if there is any interest there.</p>
<p>There are a quite a number of groups that discuss these topics,
this is a hodgepost collection of mine that might be useful:<br>

<p>Let us know if you have any luck.</p>
<p>(and for the person who posted about Greendisk - there are
services that will reprocess instead of just dumping these,<br>
I put some related companies at:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.hidden-tech.net/project/free-cycle-and-share/">http://www.hidden-tech.net/project/free-cycle-and-share/</a><br>
Some are about recycling rather than reuse</p>
