I asked the exact same question a few months ago and although folk provided me with all the linux financial app names etc, I am still a Quicken user. I am afraid, for me, linux doesn't provide anything like the Quicken functionality and appearance, ease of use etc. [...]
Hylton, ----------------------- Interestingly, I stuck with Gnucash and actually have it working, although I'm not sure for how long. It's a double entry system, and I'm not used to moving things from one account to another. The program did let me import directly from my Microsoft Money program, and I have also successfully imported data from my bank. We'll see whether or not I can continue to deal with the learning curve. Linux is installed on a dedicated hard drive, and I can switch back and forth via reboot. But I'm trying to get to the point where that isn't necessary. I may almost be there. The only thing remaining is to get graphics capabilities. GIMP is good, but unfortunately the scanner that I'm using is new and unsupported.

Rem (WA6CJK) ================= PLCash Has anyone taken a look at the PLCash program? I know several have mentioned looking for a good personal finance program for Linux and with this one written in Java, it should provide a multi-platform solution. I have downloaded it, but not tested or played yet. I don't recall anyone mentioning it before, but thought others might be interested, especially those wanting to move from Windows.
