I'm trying to figure out the best method for keeping track of my collection, to simplify ordering and what not.

Currently I keep a list and pictures of what I already have on the trusty iPhone, along with a list of what I have on order.
I also have wiki print outs of all the different families with sSpec numbers, and cross them off as I get them.

my current system is very tedious at the moment.
How do you all keep track?

I used to have a small database program on my PalmPilot for this purpose. It was convenient because it was always with me, and I could check it while at was at work. After a few years I got tired, and stopped updating it. Right now I rely on my website (if it's there then I have it Smile ) and my memory.

Thinkin I'll try the X86 Guide & the Spread Sheet idea & see how it goes, also been meaning to get my website back up when I get time Question and give that a go too, whatever ends up workin best.

And I've got a pile of beer at home, so I'll probably end up in the same boat your in Hugo Wink

Good luck Robev!
Thanx all.

I used to use my website to catalog my collection. Now that I only collect more modern processors, which I mostly use for overclocking and benchmarking (my latest hobby) I use a spreadsheet to catalog them.
