I gave QB 2005 a try in wine and it wouldn't install, let alone
run...perhaps it's too late of a version to be supported. I might
give a demo of XOver Office a try, but as
a few of you have mentioned... it IS mission-critical software...
This TurboCASH intrigues me however... I'm currently viewing their
site/FAQ and see nothing about it running in Linux, however, if it can
be used to successfully convert QB files into, say, gnucash-readable
files, it might be worth it.
Thanks :)
