IDEA - Collector interest database

If this sounds like a good idea, I'll create a site and host it. It could have things like a "wish list", "current inventory", "items for trade/sale", etc. I know some of this type of thing exists elsewhere, such as on Sellam's VCM site, but I haven't seen a place where I can go to find individuals who have specific computers, parts, wants, etc. Other ideas and opinions are welcome. If this kind of thing already exists, just enlighten me as to where it is located. Ashley _________________________ I've had this site up for more than a year now. It's kinda lame, I know, but it's an attempt anyway. The hard part is to keep emails current (and to keep when you're making a change for them.) I've posted requests for additions to this list every now and then, and have thought of making changes but, honestly, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of interest. http://www.geocities.com/computercollectors/index.htm and : http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Horizon/9107/collectors.htm The latter is my personal collecting/family site but both versions of the list are complete and up-to-date as of right now. We get letters from the site now and then, which I forward to all members no matter where they are or what they collect. Just got one yesterday from South Florida from someone with a raft of PC stuff. bm
