Those are all great CDs. Any one of them would be fantastic to have. Matches well with a TechStep or other official repair guides & software.
Do you have any of these recovery CDs? It looks like it was a 4 volume set, and while volume 4 is easily found online (Legacy SW), I haven’t found volume 1 (Application SW):
Apple Application Software Recovery CD
Apple System Software 1 Recovery CD
Apple System Software 2 Recovery CD
If you do, it would be great if you could image them and upload them to the Internet Archive or the Garden!

@MrFahrenheit I see you are missing Mac OS X Developer Preview 2

Can you give a few examples of what some of those internal CDs were called?all of the apple site-licensed software from all of the internal Apple CDs into one place.
Maybe keep these separate, as it sounds like the first one is the internal Apple CD stuff and the 2nd is your own collection? So you could make both available but separately.Its 10GB and I have another 20GB of my own software from the past.

I wonder if it'd be possible to hack the MacOS GUI back into OS X by using the resources from Rhapsody / OS X Server 1.0. Or did the GUI use the ill-fated vector-based GUI system?
Wow... that is just fantastic ... so great. I'm very impressed, and your pictures are always the best (like being there), thanks for that, I can almost smell the packaging...
Even so, I think this would only really be possible with early Mac OS X (10.0 through 10.2, maybe 10.3), since beyond that shipping Mac OS X (as far as I know) has relatively little in common with the developer previews GUI-wise.One just needs to hack it together from the Developer Previews, as they’re based on Darwin and likely more closely related to the shipping OS X.

Right?
