=== Al Lowe's Sierra Source Code === In 2018, Lowe posted a listing at popular [[auction]] website [[eBay]] of an entire backup of his own works at Sierra because he noted that Sierra had no intention of ever backing up any [[source code]]. Lowe said, "I backed everything up because I knew Sierra didn't." These included original floppies, boxes, manuals and source code for various games including popular titles such as the original ''[[Leisure Suit Larry]]'' and ''[[Space Quest]]'' among others. Shortly after he posted the listing, he sat down for an in depth interview with MetalJesusRocks, a former colleague and ex-Sierra employee where the two had a detailed discussion regarding the entire collection and its ultimate value.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Machkovech |first1=Sam |title=Al Lowe reveals his Sierra source code collection—then puts all of it on eBay |url=https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2018/11/al-lowe-reveals-his-sierra-source-code-collection-then-puts-all-of-it-on-ebay/ |access-date=14 January 2022 |work=Ars Technica |agency=arsTECHNICA |date=30 November 2018 |language=en-us}}</ref>
