You know pickings are slim when you can't even find a C64 to ignore.
While I agree that hordeing 50 C64 is a not so bright
idea,
I have more than one unit of particular machines ... and
even more, when is a unit the same ?
C64s went through so many revisions during their product cycle, almost no
two C64s will be exactly alike. I have somewhere around 150 of them now.
One day the C64 supercomputer will be a reality.

Doubble Argh. If I had to decide between keeping
Manuals,
Magazines and third party books or the computers, I'd rather
give the computers away.
Great answer.
100% correct. I got a full truck load of Lundia
shelves, and
there's nothing better - and it is incredible what you can
store if you use shelfs. I even found that you get more parts
in a shelf then just by pileing them. this may sound unbelivable,
but it's true.
It's amazing how much space get's freed up once I stack stuff on a shelf.
