I'm just afraid that if I start compiling my PDF list, someone will end up filing a missing person's report on me next Tuesday.  Plus, the bulk of my PDF list is likely to be orange/red and almost no blue, unless it's a PDF copy of something I've also got physical copies of

Good lord, I feel like a midget compared to you guys. 

I can claim familiarity with perhaps 5-6 RPG systems, no more.  And that's counting both AD&D and 3.0/3.5 D&D as two separate systems.

In my case I have read a lot of them. I think that's why I have so many. I love to read through them. Now as far as actually playing them...

I've read way more of mine than not - love the underlying info.  My biggest issue was always finding other people willing to play a new system just for the heck of it, instead of always falling back on the same systems over and over.

Same for me. Enjoy reading them, but playing? Not enough time.
