I've been using Quicken for a long time - currently on 2004 Deluxe - and I'm always feeling guilty when I don't keep up with entering my financial stuff into the program - the download capabilities seem problematical - and I'm sick of all the "advertising" included in the program - the stuff that I can't turn off like menu items that cost extra and such - I pay all of my bills online through my Bof A account - seems like most of what I keep in Quicken that wasn't readily available online years ago is now readily available from my different financial institutions, banks, and CC companies online. I've got a paper backup of almost everything - and granted, I'd give up some convenience by having to look in more than one place for information versus just going to Quicken, but the hassle of keeping current AND working around all of the quirks and twists is getting to be a pain in the neck - I could use the time better elsewhere - is anyone else in the same boat? If so, what's made you continue to hang on and stay with Quicken? Thanks!
