There was a thread recently, discussing the relative merits of Quicken vs. Mind Your Own Money (MYOM), and another thread discussing Quicken upgrades/versions. I have used Quicken for several years (even since my DOS days), and have been very pleased with it. HOWEVER... it does look like Intuit is largely ignoring its Mac constituency. Like others, I have waited patiently for the nice features which are included in the DOS and Windoze versions. Having run out of patience, I recently wrote them a letter pointing out the disparity in features between the two platforms. Yesterday I got a form letter reply saying my comments were being forwarded to the appropriate people. Enclosed with the letter were 3 pages (6 sides) of promo material for the NEW! DOS version and IMPROVED! Windows features. -- Not one clue anywhere that a Mac version even exists. I thought it was pretty funny, considering the text of my letter. BOTTOM LINE: (ok, 3 or 4 lines) It's not worth my time (yet) to convert to MYOM, but any new user should factor Intuit's (a)pathetic product support into the equation before making a final decision about which program to use. -- Don -- Don Plym c2xdlp@kocrsv01.delcoelect.com Delco Electronics Corporation, M/S R328 Kokomo, IN 46904 (317) 451-1351
