Aye I see that you are here but from other threads I understood that I have to say "Welcome back" to you Wink

But even as you are here with FalconFly, both of you aren't listed in collectors' thread anymore.

For the moment I wish for some aspects of my collection to not be known as I'm making a final push to complete it.

For Falconfly & Patience I cannot speak and you would have to inquire with him.

Everything in a nice table with some info. Unfortunatly I cannot make lines between the cells. [Table border=1] doesn't work.

Well the thing is I have some funds but very little time, since I'm starting studying in about 2 weeks, and that would be for 4 years away from home so now I grab what I can before I start.

I could give some exclusive announcement... I plan (and have most of the deals aready started or even at higher level) to reach something as 80+ cards in a short period as 3 weeks
probably I'll reach 84 - 85
(Some of them, I promess, will be quite interesting ones)

These 2 I mentioned are the first 2 form this last series of purchases of mine.

After that I'll get only few items that I might find very interesting in a very long period of time, I'll be buying more next summer when I'll have some time at home again.

Sometime ago you might have seen me state this
Quote:

Hope I manage to hit 50 items

Since funds were not a problem (I got some extras at my job, and also some additonal work) I did manage to reach my goal and "slightly" overdid it.

well yeah I remember telling myself that 50 cards was my end destination well got 55 for now, why would I stop why would we stop collecting better to say hehe, Anyway I take it as a possitive hobby, there is nothing bad about collecting nice pieces of PCB with great history & Technology in them, so might as well go allong with them Wink

Atleast we enjoy our hobby which is most of importance.

May The Force Be With Ya All,

I'm off to bed.

Cheers,

Well I'll be damned...
This one was not even supposed to be some extraordinary addition to my collection, but it turned out so:
Anyone ever heard of a Sparkle SP3800 banshee?
Seems like an asian brand.. and I got it for something as 3 EUR

Since I got a tripod for some time now, it's never a problem taking photos:

Found it Quote: its not a banshee you see everyday but its also not rare i would say... Well to in my point of view any marketed card cannot be rare, just more like a "not common" all this depending on production quantity, market location and market share.
