But beyond that, one of the things that drove me away from the Q-word (and irritates me about lots of other software) was that, every year, they put out a new version because that's their marketing model. Doesn't matter whether there was a good reason to do so or not, they'd add a bunch of bloat in useless features I didn't want and would never use, all so they could put out something "new." Every several years, I'd play along, but by no means did I see any reason to pay for an upgrade every year, and I guess I wasn't alone in that, so they squeezed us any way they could, even through coercion of financial institutions. Which reminds me, I paid $29.99 for Moneydance on 7/22/2005, and not a penny since then, through countless fixes, patches, minor upgrades, and other improvements. I've gotta admit, that's pretty sweet... Stan On Fri, 17 Sep 2010 01:21:40 -0700, Steve Lessard <[email protected]> wrote: > Sean and team have spoiled us.
