I agree. A single window and actually being able to know my financial condition simply by looking at my buckets were the main reasons for switching to MoneyWell. Kevin has added several major features, and modified minor viewing details without changing MW's character. That's because most changes and additions are under the covers.
Even the requests from "pacer": * * * * * a built-in calculator function is essential for me to quickly add up various items that all fit together into each expense bucket. As well, while entering these items, the ability to set and use single digit alpha sales tax codes (e.g. entering "g" on the keyboard would automatically add 5% to the item or total) would vastly improve my ability to handle the provincial sales tax and goods and services tax * * * * * is a feature I'd like as well since they can be added by simply allowing math features within a number field. These would not turn MoneyWell into Quicken. Even Kevin called MoneyWell the Quicken replacement in the beginning (haven't checked the site to see if he still does). I use MoneyWell for personal and businesses right now, but my business needs aren't major requiring a full fledged business accounting app, full of fancy things that I'd bet would really complicate the UI. But, if Kevin did decide to do something like that, I doubt he would compromise MoneyWell. He'd probably create a super easy-to-use business app called BusinessWell.
