I'm going to look at GNUCash and see if it meets my needs.

They've been pretty happy with that so far. To be honest, if its just a single application that you need Windows for, you might come out ahead in the long run by switching over to something web based or actually compatible with Linux. I know that's not an easy task with finance software, but just something to keep in the back of your head. If you don't like the idea of having your finances on a third party server, Linux does have one awesome native application; GNUCash. I used it for a long time, it's very featured, actively developed, and their mailing list is extremely active and helpful. With that said, if you ABSOLUTELY need to stay with Quicken, a Virtualbox VM will be the easiest way to go if your hardware can handle it okay. -- Sajan Parikh -- ubuntu-users mailing list <a href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Modify settings or unsubscribe at: <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users" target="_blank">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users</a> </blockquote></div>
