An off topic question: can anyone recommend a good bit of software for hardware management? I want a database that I can store information about my hardware (I'm thinking primarily of servers, but other network equipment would come in too) such as make/model, where it is, what it's used for etc. One of the critical things is that I want it to store warranty information, and (ideally) email out an alert when the warranty is about to expire. Any ideas? I know I could write such a db using Access or whatever, but I'm no db expert, and if I ask my software development team to write something it will be months of wrangling just to get it on their agenda... I can't help but feel there must be a good bit of shareware out there to do the job I want to do.
