Question Microsoft Money for Linux?

Greetings - I am new to this forum and it seems to be a great forum.

One question, I moved my entire enterprise (in my house consisting of a few servers, laptops, desktops, etc to Linux. Love it. One thing, my wife wont let me move her laptop to linux until I find an equivalent (or close to) of Microsoft Money for Linux. Anyone know of one?

Thanks

Jose

I've used GNU Cash with good success. It is usually bundled with most distros. Or it is probably in the repositories. Others that I haven't used - Money Dance and Cheque Book Tracker, so I can't say if they are MS Money equivilents. Google for more info on these and good luck.

All the links (plus a few more) in

-> softwares
-> accounting

You need to decide whether you want single or double
accounting.

Microsoft Money for Linux = SCO's lawsuit!

Sorry, couldn't resist!

Seriously though - in addition to what 900i said, you could try running M$ Money under wine.

The best choice in my opinion is KMyMoney. I worked with Microsoft Money for a long time, tried gnucash and a few other financial programms, but kmymoney comes closest.
