Hey, I'm not the one on the attack here.

Although Intuit holds a large portion of Excite now, there is a thread for that company, and that's where any discussion of price movement belongs. If Excite's actvities affect Intuit, that's when they should be brought over here.

And if you are smarter than the analysts, people will notice it if you post intelligent opinion and insight. It won't come from incessant rantings to read your past posts advising stock purchase. Where are all the posts on the stocks that have dropped? I seem to remember seeing your name on the Ascend thread....

So ease off on the puffery. That being said, here is a news piece from the other day that was not posted. I have never heard of Ameritrade, but this is the type of thing that would interest people in paying yearly upgrades for their Quicken. I'd love to see them (Intuit) make a deal with Schwab and other big players.

Also how well this is executed remains to be seen. Except for a few features, I consider Quicken 6 to be a downgrade, not an upgrade. Things like Financial Newstand are just a joke.

This came in 9/15:

AmeriTrade, Intuit In Online Account Access Pact
