Re: Gnucash: Opinions please

[Tim Wunder]

In fairness to Lindows, gnucash 1.8.0 was just released in February. 
It's currently at 1.8.2, and some things are broken still (not badly 
broken, but broken none-the-less). Scheduled Transactions being one of 
the broken features. They work, mostly, and I use them heavily (I've 
been using gnucash from CVS for months, specifically for the SX's), but 
there's a minor problem with the transactions not being exactly valid. 
And SX's don't work with the Postgres backend, yet (but the pg backend 
is not the default and you need to jump thru some hoops to get it to work).

Then again, the latest 1.6.x version is 1.6.8, released in August of 2002...

Another example of why the warehouse is not really worth the money. The only
thing I've gotten from it that seemed worth it was StarOffice.

I have gnucash installed (painlessly) on my lindows box.
It looks nice and quicken like but before I spend time on it, I would like
to have other's opinions about it. Is it worth using?
One specific question I have. Looking through the manual and messing
around a bit with gnucash, I didn't see any mention of a calendar like
quicken has for scheduling or reviewing transactions. Is there one?
Gnucash 1.8.x has scheduled transactions. Not exactly the same as what quicken 
has, but close. No calender, per se, and no budgeting (yet). But you can 
create repeating, scheduled transactions with it.

What version of gnucash is installed by Lindows?
