I don't think I mentioned this explicitly but the best site for old AD&D/D&D products is the Acaeum. It includes images of covers, research notes, commentary, and a forum with pretty nice folks. It is oriented towards collecting older material.
To me the Old School Renaissance is not about playing a particular set of rules in a particular way, the dungeon crawl. It is about going back to the roots of our hobby and seeing what we could do differently. What avenues were not explored because of the commercial and personal interests of the game designers of the time.

Thanks for the link! I tried to register with their forum, but they blocked Hotmail/Gmail/Yahoo Mail/etc and I need to use my "home" email address.
Crap! My Gmail IS my home email address!
Anyway, other that that, it is an excellent resource site!
