How do you inventory your toys?

I think it would be really neat to see how folks here inventory their gear. Does anyone use an application or other means of inventory?

I'm a software engineer for Macy’s INC. I typically develop desktop applications that are used for data mining. My most recent project made me think about inventory of my toys. I’m thinking of perhaps putting something together that allows me to have a picture of my toy, a description, how much I paid etc... It would basically be a data mining application with all the pertinent information about my toys I have collected over the years.

I’ve seen web applications that do this, but they are incredibly slow. I’m sure the one I tried was on an old computer in someone’s basement, collecting all my information and laughing at me as I try to retrieve it. *muhahahaha*

Aaaaanyhow, there it is. How do you inventory your toys.
