Not true.  I have Quicken 4 running under WARP without any problems.  
The trick is to use it ONLY in a WinOS2 window (e.g. don't load WinOS/2
and then run Quicken -- it will GPF from then on).

Older versions of Quicken for Windows should work fine.  I thought of reverting
back to 3.0 but the graphs in 4.0 are much easier to understand (for investments).
