Intuit never released a true Intel-compatible version of its flagship software but somehow pushed out a hacked-together version that sidestepped the need for Rosetta (see “ Intuit Releases Quicken Mac 2007 OS X Lion Compatible,” 8 March 2012). Separating personal and business transactions by using categories to assign any transaction to any purposeīut Quicken 2007 was already behind the times in 2006! Apple had already begun its transition from PowerPC to Intel chips, and Quicken 2007 had only PowerPC code in it.Highly customizable reporting to extract lists of transactions or summaries of income and expenses corresponding to city, state, and federal tax guidelines.

I couldn’t remember when I first installed Quicken to manage my personal and small-business finances. How I Learned To Love Quicken Deluxe and Give Up on the Past
