can it import .csv files?

I'm so sick of Quicken's annual bug fix tax (what they call "version upgrade") that I am seriously thinking about just buying MS Money and running either on VPC or on a Win2000 box in my closet that I can VNC to.

Guess I'll wait for some objective reviews of the thing before I do anything. :mad:

Still, it's $20 more this time, right? That's great. Pay more, get less.

Anyone else want something simpler that addresses your needs without breaking the bank?

I'm rather annoyed at Intuit...

They'll make a fully-functional WINDOWS edition of Quicken for the UK market, yet shun the ever-growing masses of Mac users over here.

I can't tell you how many countless emails I've sent to them - pleading with them to reconsider, and adapt their excellent US-based OSX version over to our side of the pond...

...but they've fallen on deaf ears.

Screw them - I've now got Moneydance. It's good enough for my accounts, and my bank manager's a happy bunny when I can plan a budget and stick to it.

:mad:

never heard of moneydance. how good is it? can someone please write down the positives and negatives?

[kiwi_the_iwik]

Moneydance is fantastic - it does QIF files anyway, so you can import/export to Quicken painlessly.
