Yeah, right.

To repeat:  I wouldn't consider either Quicken or MYOB suitable for
running a business.  I don't care what their sales departments say,
those are glorified electronic checkbooks.  If you are running a
business, you need A/R, A/P, general ledger, and so on.  

I take it that you don't agree.  Fine:  Be happy with your Quicken[1],
your winmodems, your minitowers, and your IDE drives.  I just would 
rather not hear about it, OK?

So, what do _you_ mean when you say "my business software", pray tell?

[1] But you'd be well advised o discuss this software fetish with your
accountant.
