"You also forgot to mention that the Official Priceguide has inclued many chips that aren't listed in the TCR."

I diddn't mention it because I don't think the number is significant. As far as the quantity of chips listed, TCR has a huge advantage.

"The TCR also doesn't have the pcitures, which can make a world of difference when trying to figure out one chip from the other on some chips that are almost identical."

While the Official Priceguide (by whose standard or ordination is it 'Official'?) does have many pictures, there are nowhere near enough to make it useful for comparison of similar chips.

"To make a statement that it leaves out almost as much as in includes is way out of line. You can always state your preferences without competely trashing the priceguide you aren't fond of."

To state my preference, without giving my reasons for that preference, as others have done, would be unfair.

While I agree that the 'Official Priceguide' might be considered a valuable reference by some, I maintain that 'The Chip Rack' is a more complete an more useful reference.
