One of these days, my finances will be straightened out enough to get an
Intel Mac.  Right now, my computer is 6 years old.  I could probably run
eLibPro in Virtual PC, but that's really a last-ditch effort.  Few programs
are worth the effort.  And I still don't have a barcode scanner...

Ultimately, all I really need is something I can easily print out (in
*really* small font size) to take with me when I go book shopping.  Helps
keep me from buying a book again, and reminds me of series and authors I
already have some of.
