- I will post this also.

- I just started using Quicken for Windows a couple of weeks ago. I was using
- Money Counts from Parsons Technology and Checkfree software previously.
- So far, I am quite impressed with the software. For one thing, it replaced
- 2 DOS programs with 1 Windows program. Since I run Windows 3.1 almost
- all the time, I like that. I can't give you too much detail on the reporting
- capabilities, since as I said, I just started using it, but it looks real
- good. It does not appear to have the graphing capabilitites of Money Counts,
- but I can probably live with that. One more thing... I'm not sure why I
- got it for such a good price, but an office supply store here in town
- was selling it for $19.95. I think it may have been an introductory offer.
- I figured for that price, it was worth a try.
- I would recommend it, especially if you can get it for that price!
