Ibank is ALMOST what I want, but the UI is not good.
Hmm. It's sounds like the finest party I can imagine getting paid to go to.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
If you had a choice would you go for Quicken online or your own locally-owned copy? Not a theoretical question for me, my old iBook has Quicken 2004, which is the ONLY thing I'm using it for now, and I may as well decide what I'm going to do with it on the new MacAir.
Theo, I had Quicken 2005 (or possibly it was 2004) on my iBook, and it runs fine on Snow Leopard on my new MacBook Pro.
So if you want to keep using it and just transfer everything over, you might want to give it a shot.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Theo, afaict there isn't a Mac Quicken 2011, there's Quickbooks, which does way more than I need, and Quicken Essentials, which doesn't do a lot of what I want it to do. I'm using Quicken 2007, I think, and it's a little buggy, but not enough to make me want to downgrade to an earlier version.
I just don't trust having all my financial information in a web-based app, nsm for security concerns (I do my banking online, after all) but fear that I won't be able to get to my data when I need it, for some reason.

Hey. New board.
I tried pretty much every financial program available for the mac, and mostly disliked them all. I think I eventually settled on Quicken 2004, despite being ugly and slow, just for convenience. Then I realized that detailed tracking of every transaction was more trouble than it was worth for me, set up mint.com and basically only use it to look at my "Net Worth" every now and then. Seems I keep to a reasonable budget without tracking myself. I do download and archive PDF copies of my statements every few months for my records.

Hey. New board.
Apparently out-of-the-box notifications are finally going to be better on iPhones. At least iPhone 4s, since it seems 3gs may not be able to upgrade to iOS 5.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

They're now saying it will be upgradable.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Looks like my dev device gets something new to play with.

Hey. New board.
Woo! Though I'll probably still have to wait a while, since I don't want to give up my jailbreak. The new mail app looks nice or I might not even bother, since I have equally good notifications under JB.

(What I really miss is the old MS Money that came with my Dell waaaaaaaaaay back when. Like, Win98 way back when. But it was a kickass finance program.)
I remember that! I used it for years. Sporadically.
D has the comp-sec heebie-jeebies about Mint or any other program that links with our bank, but I may try it for my business account.
