   I still figure
I've spent more on the shelves to hold the collection than
 the collection itself, if I factor in the cost of the renovations now 
I _know_ I've spent more on connectors, cable, magnetic media,
replacement chips, etc than I've spent on classic computer systems.... 
In my case, and I suspect several others, I've spent more on storage fee's, than I
have on my collection itself.  For that mater, I think I've probably spent more on
documentation than the collection itself (unless you count a pair of the Alpha's, at
which point I'm not sure).
