Trash can full of junk CDs
October 11, 2005
You’re looking at an entire trash can full of old CDs – previous versions of MS Office, trial versions from companies that don’t exist anymore, monitor drivers (you can’t make this stuff up – it’s the same driver that comes with Windows)… and I’m only halfway through throwing this stuff out. And this is one trash can of dozens like it all over campus on any given year.
Please, ‘companies that make software’, please stop. This can’t be good for our beautiful little blue planet. When institutions are involved, we only need one copy of anything, and we’re going to put it on our server anyway, so just make it available for download, OK?
