TI99 Equipment Database

(03-06-2015, 12:41 PM)Jim-Point well-taken on the cart/label colors- I think you\re right.  I added the color fields back in, but I'm still not sure what is the best way - have each cart listed once, and list all of the color variations (as I've started doing), or have multiple listings for a single cart, but each with a different color combo?  I think I'm leaning toward the later, especially if a goal is to someday allow users to use the database to build their own personal inventory.Yes- I do have Bill Gaskill's Cartridge Collection Kit.  I haven't actually consulted it yet, but I'm going to now.

I'm not sure it is a good idea to remove the cartridge and label color fields, Rich--I have cartridges with as many as 10 distinct variants, some of which are exceedingly rare. I also have taken pictures of a lot of the educational ones I have--mostly from Scott Foresman, but there are quite a number of others too. If you have a copy of Bill Gaskill's Cartridge Collection Kit, I made the pictures so he could include them there back in 2003 or so. . .
