Computer (Trading) Cards

[Andrew Burton]

Hi,

(The first paragraph is OT so you can skip if you want)
I just rediscovered the world of trading cards, thanks to model Chanel Ryan. She recently mentioned that she had some Benchwarmer cards, so I just bought one of her cards on ebay, which reminded me of my Buffy & Angel cardsets. I have a full set of Buffy seasons 1-3 and recently bought one from season 7 on ebay.

Whilst cataloging the cards (I wanted to know whether I had any spares I can sell online - I have plenty of spares for Angel season 1 if anyone is interested!) I started to wonder whether there exists a set for classic computers. If not, has anyone thought of attempting to produce a trading card set... though I suspect a card set (so you have a full set from the start, rather than having to trade to get the full set (hence trade in brackets in the subject title)) would be a better idea.
I was initially thinking of a set of say 90 cards, with one or two cards per computer, but then got to thinking that with so many computer enthusiasts on here perhaps a set per computer would be feasible? I guess it depends how much info you have per computer.
I realise the market for such things wouldn't be hugely profitable, but it would be great for someone like myself that only knows alot of computers by name.

Does anyone have any comments / suggestions? It's purely an idea at this point, so no orders please!

Andrew B
