Does anyone know of some good websites or message boards for hardcore Apple collectors? I'd love trade stories with other addicts like myself.

Much more than 50...

Yes, it is a lot. I'm lucky my wife doesn't toss me and my Macs out of the house. The number is closer to 75 if you count all the duplicates too. It's starting to level off as I have most of the common ones. I'm starting to home in on the rarities -- I'll have to stretch this phase over many years as the stakes get much higher.

I guess not many collectors drop by here. I'm going to work on a website devoted to nuts like me -- mostly me. The site will have extensive photos and information on my collection and links to others with too much time on their hands as well. I'll have a message board there too to discuss great finds in the vintage Mac hunt. If only I could take a few days off from acquiring and get that website up and running.

I consider myself a collector, but not majorly so (especially since the wife has started chiming in.) I too, am looking for a place for collectors to hang out.
I went to the applefritter boards, but it was a waste of time.

Let me know how your project works out- I'd join! 🙂
