General Software Discussion / Re: Programs you can use during a financial meltdown!

Back to the original question, if you need some software for your home accounts (free) or your business (up to about 10 employees) for about $180 with nothing more to pay ever and free updates, try Acclaim Cashbook (www.acclaimsoftware.com).
The business stuff is not free but it's incredibly cheap for what you get and over a short time period you can get it to do most of the work for you. Perfect for people with more important things to do.
I'll admit to being a retired accountant. I had all my business clients using this software (even the bigger ones although they also needed some other tools). The money they had to pay attracted them at first but the ease of use kept them all happy. As for me, I get bored easily and I'm kind of lazy so I enjoyed having very little boring stuff to do. It also allowed me time to look like a 'Business Guru" because I had lots of time to create "miracles". Much more fun.
Sorry to interrupt the tangential semantic discussion. People like me have no sense of humour.
