A quick update regarding bonsai software .......

Over the weekend I managed to locate, download and test (initially) two
software applications.
A program called Virtual Bonsai located at
http://www.jfpinc.com/bonsai_dl/index.htm appears to be an interesting use
of computer graphics used to create and nurture an e-bonsai. Cute tool but
not much good for documenting your bonsai collection.
A second program called Aceana 2001 located at
http://www.monbonsai.com/aceana/en/index.htm appears to be a good method of
documenting the history of your trees with TONS of useful documentation
features.
Given another week, I will attempt to provide a complete evaluation of these
two tools.
In addition, I've located a number of rather outdated software databases
created for Windows 95 and 98 which I have yet to download.

In the interim, does anyone know of other applications supporting our art
form ?
