I am looking to buy a personal finance software package for my Mac, and
would like any of you who are using either Quicken or Dollars and Sense
(or some other one!) to give me your impressions.  I'd particularly like
to hear from anyone who can compare both, or either with some other one,
but any experience with either one is of interest.  Do you like it, or
hate it, and why?  Do you use it regularly, and what features do you use
and which ones are important?

I notice that Quicken goes for about half the price of D & S, which suggests
that they are not in the same class.  If that is true, is Quicken adequate
for home finances, or should I pony up for D & S?

Obviously, reply by email; I'll summarize to net if I get a lot of requests.
And thanks for any help!
