Hello! :-)
I have a weird question...
I've been using Quicken 8 for DOS for quite a long time, mainly for basic account management, and the two copies I currently have are Quicken 8 Rev. 3 and Quicken 8. Rev 5.
Was a later version of the DOS product ever released?
If so, is there any way to (hopefully legally) obtain it?
Find reference, at Intuit site, to R7 as final relase but could not find where/how to get it.
Do a search of this forum 'q8r7'. One thread points to 'alt.binaries.misc' as source.
He did say 'legal' :)
Gather that referenced site is less than 'legal'??
This begs the question - what are the legal, ethical considerations in this case where someone seeks a sw update or patch that the original provider no longer offers?
Here in alt.comp.software.financial.quicken, "JM" spake unto us, saying:
I'm acutely aware of abandonware sites. :-)
In this case, however, I'm trying to keep things squeaky clean.
Methinks it's Quicken 8 Rev 7 I'm after -- thanks to those who verified it. Maybe I'll fire a note to Intuit asking if they have any ideas.
Quicken 8.0 Rel. 7 I am running it under DOSBox-X withing Windows 10 64bit.
Quicken 6 running under DOSBox (with Windows 10) works fine for me and does everything that I need. Does Quicken 8 support dates beyond 2027, as I don't think my Quicken 6 will. Will Quicken 8/DOSBox work with Windows 11?
