Thanks for the pointer to Moneydance. Grumpy editor, would you include it in your review?

It's a commercial non-open source program and our Grumpy Editor did say he was not going to look at commercial products. If you want to look at it, you can download a copy to play with.

Since Moneydance is way ahead on features and useablity, why not give it a look? I'd rather see it the standard for comparison than Quicken.
I used gnucash for a while, but md is much, much better, IMO.

The Grumpy Editor's guide to personal finance managers (Part I) Posted Sep 16, 2005 8:19 UTC (Fri) by guybar (guest, #798) [Link] and our Grumpy Editor did say he was not going to look at commercial products And with all due respect (which I have), he might have been wrong: at least as far as giving an example for what the standard in the non-free world is. I have been curious about this for some time. If you want to look at it, you can download a copy to play with. Isn't the purpose of a "review" to do exactly this kind of "playing with" the products in the field, thus saving a lot of redundant work by a lot of readers ?

Also, I worry about lock-in on programs like that and have no interest in them. Oh, sorry folks we've sold out to the monopoly I'm sure they will meet your future needs.
