Using YNAB as well. It is the first personal money software I've used that made 
sense. (Pun very unintended.)

I get the small footprint thing. Not asking for RTF, but it is one thing that I 
find holds MLO back for me. I do wish there was a way to select a branch and 
copy everything out and paste it into Evernote. Once I am done a project, I'd 
like to store the whole thing as a note. That isn't handy right now at all.
