I use FoxPro to catalogue my game carthridges, and as soon as I get a

Howdy,
I just thought of something. Are any of you using a database to
catalogue what software you use/have for these old machines?
I don't just explicitly use a database just for software, but I do use a
database to catalogue my computer collection as a whole and this does
include software.
I started using SGML with my own DTD, but I soon started hitting
limitations, so I now use a PostgreSQL database. I generate all the
pages for my web site using this database and a Python program. (I am
currently working on a web based admin system for it also.)
