OFF TOPIC,

Roger,
Thanks for the revealing of some "secrets". <G>

So, in brief, users of any new OS are likely to get Intuit application functionality sooner in some web-centric way than through a port of the applications to Linux or any other OS.

It would be great to make it browser or Java based.

Also, the market the Intuit serves is the mass consumer and small business market; not servers, not engineers. The fact that Quicken may be widely used within the community of Linux users does not mean that that group is significant within the broad group of Intuit customers.

It is still true, but situation is changing very rapidly.

Thanks again.
