I've lost my old Quicken 2K disk but as they have stopped supporting it in 
the UK it looks like this is the time to migrate to something else.

I had a look through Google groups and most of the entries seem to be from 
the mid '90s!
Just plain Googling elicited the fact that most ex Quicken users hate ALL 
the other applications :-)
With particular venom saved for 'Personal Accounts Home Edition'. So it 
looks like that's out! I tried a copy of MS Money but as I appeared to be 
bankrupt* I was not impressed.

I suspect that as I'm not a financial ace I will be stuck with MS Money but 
has anyone any other suggestion for something that works as like Quicken? 
And by the way I was quite happy with the old Quicken 95 which I thought was 
better than the 2K. I think their big mistake was XG and trying to get home 
users to rent the application yearly - no one wanted that, so naturally they 
lost market share!

TIA
