My Collection
Do you have display cabinets full of stuff? With it all neatly labelled, cross-referenced and entered into a database. Have you been to a convention? Do other collectors look up to you in awe?
I thought I was above this one. I'm not that autistically geeky that I have a Collection with a capital C. But no, I remembered I'm hoarding away every version of "Inside Macintosh" ever published.
What do you collect? And why? I mean, what makes you do it?

definitely a hoarder...
well, there's the mp3 collection (around 250GB - i need a new hard drive now to carry on), and the cd collection (1200 or so) and the dvd collection (600 or so) and the book collection (400 or so)... i've also got a collection of pointy sharp and shiny things, and my garage currently has a collection of bits of wood and plasterboard and power tools and laminate flooring. fun-ness. there's also a minor pc collection (four working, about six not working) and a guitar collection (there's only six, although to be fair one's a gibson les paul gothic) and every issue of computer music from the last four years or so and a collection of hi-fi equipment (three cd players, four amps, two dvd players, 37" plasma, 30" lcd, three consoles, two minidisc players, eleven speakers, around a hundred metres of cable or so...). and of course, there's the obligatory collection of cables and interconnects and assorted components lurking around the place. i've also started a tattoo collection, too. one sleeve down, and loads more ink to go :)
the other half's got a collection of eeyores and another one of shoes. and neuroses ;) but to be fair they're probably mostly due to living with me.
