Um, Well! See my comments below.

Far, far to complex and comprehensive. Documentation is totally 
disorganised Gobble-de-gook. GST is especially for Canada, Many different 
rates for both Federal and State levels. Some compound others don't. 
Multiple profit centres. Intended as the accounting system for a large 
multi-store business. The GUI is completely off-the-wall. Not for a 
one-man-band!!!

Good.

Previously unknown to me. Looks pretty comprehensive.

Fairly complex, and comprehensive.

There is still a need for an FLOSS accounting system set up for NZ to 
compare to MYOB. It's very much more difficult to do this than meets the 
eye. If it was simple somebody would have done it years ago.
