So I got this idea from a friend, but I have expanded on it. I recently set out to get all the older Mac OS discs with the intent to frame them and display. Today I finished collecting them, but I could use some ideas on how to mount and display them properly. I don't want to ruin the discs with glue or anything of that sort, but my intent is to mount them like I have in my layout (I scanned the discs for the layout). I'll probably put it on a board or matte with black velvet, but I haven't figured out a good way to mount the discs so that I could remove them if needed, but still be securely fastened. I thought about using parts of CD cases to attach at the center hole, but haven't looked much into it yet.
Has anyone done something similar, and has some tips on how to do this?
Also, I researched as best as I could on what retail OS discs were out there, and this is what I came up with. There is a Mac OS X Public Beta disc that I would like, but I've only seen one for sell on eBay and the price is too high (the person listing it repeatedly puts it up for auction because it never sellsit has been relisted at least 10 times already). If anyone has that disc for sell, let me know, I'd be interested in working something out. There is also an 8.6 CD that has a pattern in the green that I would look for if I needed to balance out a Public Beta disc on the bottom row. I've tried to steer clear of small release differences, unless the disc design changed (exception is 10.0 and 10.1). I couldn't find any information on if there is an earlier OS retail release on CD before 7.5. If there were then that would be something else to look for, although I have not seen any trace of that. Every disc before 7.5 I've seen is for a specific computer(s).
Thanks for looking, and any suggestions you may have.
