Personal Finance Software Comparable to MS Money

Expires? In what way?

I believe some of the online stuff such as looking up fund prices will stop working at some point. I don't use anything online except for that though, and I can live without that, so really it should continue to work for me as for as long as you can run an XP virtual machine. I'd like not to have to, though.

I use Money (2000, I think) in Parallels as I couldn't find better. iBank is promising, but someone here (thank you) pointed out it is not supporting Snow Leopard.

According to http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/h-n iBank is SL compatible

I wouldn't hold your breath on that. Inuit has a horrible track record with regards to software for the Mac. Less features, buggy software, vaporware. How long has intuit promised a new version of quicken? 1 year, 2 years?

As I mentioned in my earlier post. iBank is a great app, much better then then what intuit has offered. They also are pretty quick with updates/bug fixes, something that can't be said for quicken.

I've used TurboTax for the past 3 years on Mac and it's worked great. I think they're capable of making the software, but they just don't know what Mac users want. I was fine using the QFL beta when I had it and actually was using that along with Quicken 2006 until it expired. I think we'll be satisfied (as best we can, we all know a lot of people are going to be crabby because of small minor things) once QFL comes out.

Hi,
I just started using KMyMoney (free) installed with macports project (also free). In my opinion, much better than Quicken for Mac. The installation takes some time, but it is well worth it. This is an X11 program, not a native cocoa program. KMyMoney imported my 6 years of Quicken for Mac without a problem.
