A floppy filled with software worth thousands of francs: Techie can't take it, customs won't keep it. What to do?

Re: Times change

I bought Minix 1.5 at the Stanford University Bookstore on University Avenue in 1991. It came on 5.25 floppies "bound" into a three-ring binder with instructions for installation, some simplistic "how to" info on the tools provided, and the complete printed out kernel source. Useful as a teaching tool, but little else ... I bought it just to help support the cause, I already had it running on my home machine.
