The
software is here! The fruits of 5 years of work by some of the most
avid and knowledgeable corkscrew collectors in the world is now available.
The first disk is the SCReWbase 3.0 catalogue of corkscrews, there are
over 5,400 corkscrews in this monumental work, complete with pictures,
descriptions, expert notes, references and much more. The database
is searchable and is based on a classification system that encompasses all
classes, types and styles. Just click on the CD to get more
information.
The
Corkscrew Collector 3.0 is a program that was written as a companion to
SCReWbase and is the software used by corkscrew collectors to keep track
of their collections. The work is the result of years of
consultation with knowledgeable collectors who have large and diverse
collections, so it should fit anyone's needs.
