I was cleaning out some old computer stuff and came across several disks that must have been part of the mountain of Apple Developer stuff they used to mail out in the late 80s. I was about to toss them, but want to see if they are of any interest to the Apple community. 

They are white disks with generic labels entitled:

First Disk:

MacDTS Stacks 2 - June 1989
Technical Notes Stack 3.1
Q&A Stack 3.1
Apple computer inc. 1988,1989
Disk 2 of 2 (Disk 1 has yet to be found)

Second Disk:

MacDTS Sample Code
April / June 1989
Apple Computer Inc. 1988,1989

And a CD:

Apple Developer Group
Developer CD Series Volume III
A Disk Called Wanda
I don't have a mac with a 3.5 drive. Can Mac disks be read by a ][gs? I am going to toss the CD in my mac mini and see if it can be read.
If there's any interest I will attempt to extract them. If that's not possible, I can always drop them in the mail to someone with appropriate hardware.

I think you might need to install a filesystem driver (HFS FST) but to some extent they can. (hope they're 800K though... but if they're 1.44 MB you can just use a PC)
