I never think of my collections screwey, but other (mundane souls) may have
problems with that.
Here are my top must-grabs:
* Commodore stuff (Micros, Monitors, Literature, am kinda looking for a C=
filing cabinet now.)
* Wierd Movies (Plan 9 from Outer Space, Dr. Caligari, stuff by Troma and
other videos of 'unique' quality.) mainstream is getting too gross and violent.
* Computer related books and movies (like reading good computer history and
tales in fiction; though nowadays it is hard to find 'good' stuff in all the
crud being made.)
* BASIC program/programming books, mainly 8-Bit BASIC stuff (I was surprised
to find a single player chess game in BASIC in one).
