Quicken versus Quickbook

I am about to start a home business as a sole proprietorship and am thinking of getting some accounting software that can also handle personal income tax (for the USA). I have looked at Quickbook and Quicken Premier Home and Business. While the former is recommended here, the latter is much cheaper. Since my business will be a sole proprietorship, should the latter be adequate - at least for the first year.

Many thanks in advance for any advice, Peter.

your right Peter...go w/the simple, cheap version... if you grow out of it, and start making some serious $$, w/many more transactions....you can always move up to the next level of software...all you really need for your tax return is a good balance sheet, income statement, and maybe a statement of cash flows....good luck !!.......
