If you're talking about Quicken, go take a look at Crossover Office, from codeweavers.com. A "packaged" version of Wine; the latest version (1.2.0) works pretty will for Quicken. A few minor glitches, but I've been able to do everything I need to: I can even update to new versions of Quicken online, as well as download E*Trade, credit card, and bank stuff online. It's not free, but it's not too expensive (~$50 IIRC), and all the improvements they make to Wine are contributed back. At $50 it's more than worth it for me to avoid booting Windows... and it's _kind of_ free software, since it's all Wine-based (only the installer and some packaging is non-free, IIRC)... :). I'd love to use GnuCash but it's just not there for me yet. Last I heard they don't even have scheduled transactions, much less online banking... I'll keep an eye on them though. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
