Hi, Steve - saw your post (via google) about looking for the Dobbs developer library dvd? I traded emails with Susan Fogarty of CMU who mentioned while they get a lot of requests for the dvd, they "regret not retaining the content."
The torrents I'm finding are offers from *.ru domains to helpfully let me "download the *.zip" file now, I'm thinking I don't it badly enough to try. Did you ever find a usable source? JOhn G.
