Hello, After much backing and forthing regarding whch distro to use on a =
day=20
to day basis, I've finnaly decided to go with Mandrake. I'm real happy wi=
th=20
it.  As I am moving all functions from Win2K to this box, I have to deal =
with=20
my Quicken situation.

I've installed wine and have Quicken running real well. I've also importe=
d my=20
data into gnucash and that seems to work fine as well. I've been a Quicke=
n=20
user since the early 90s, starting on MSdos, and have gotten very comfort=
able=20
with it.=20

I'm inclined to want to keep on with it instead of learning a whole new=20
program, but on the other hand I sort of like the dea of going all open=20
source.

What will win out, convienience or ideology?

Are there any gnucash users out there that can give some feedback, pro an=
d con=20
on this application? My accounting is one of my mission criticle items so=
 I=20
don't want to make a mistake.

Thanks,

Charlie
