Re: Old Tech Book

Euuh..I have a book about the C programming Language which my grand father gave me ..it's in French though..called
"Programmer en Langage C" by Claude Delannoy...I think it was released in 1992...not sure though..
And I have another one about the C++ Programming language...it's like a continuation of the first one..also my grand father gave it to me..and in French too..called "Langage C++"  written by NIno Silverio...and I think the year is 1992...

Don't if you're kidding or serious ...but in the 1980s there were computers in Lebanon...my grand father had one in 1985..and my father in 1987..if I am not mistaken

Re: Old Tech Book

i guess oldest Tech thing i got is DOS 6.2 Instant Reference
there are other DOS related stuff.. but can't find the date easily
too lazy to go thru them

as for non-Tech Stuff .. i have an old bible.. really old .. i guess shi 50 years old at least .. (have to ask how old)
