Greetings. My wife and I are looking for a finance package to run on 
a Mac (well, my wife is actually - she's the accountant of the household).

According to her, this is what she's looking for:
  
   Checkbook tracking
   Budget tracking (estimated vs actual to date)
   Tax estimation
   Tax "spreadsheet" that has form creation/modification abilities
       so you don't have to buy a new package every year.
   Live Tax Spreadsheet <-> Checkbook info so data only has to
       be keyed in once.
   Checkbook reconciliation with bank statement
   Report building facility (i.e. look at all "misc" expenses, etc)
   Templates for monthly/recurring bills (i.e. a standard form to
      fill out every month with mortgage/gas/electric bills)

So, do any of you out there use a package that does much/all of this ?
If so, what ? How do you like it ? What don't you like about it ?

Your recommendations are eagerly solicited.

Thanx ! - Nick 

P.S. E-mail please. If there's interest I'll summarize.
