I've used Quickbooks Pro 2004 for several years after dumping M$ Money and found it much more intuitive.
My wife was using M$ Money and it kept goofing up on her so I went to eBay and got Quicken 2005 for $5. Works like a charm.
It will take some getting used to but for the money saved (remember $5) and a little time spent learning the program Quicken will do the job.
BTW - if it's just home finances you want to do then I'd recommend doing the eBay thing and getting an earlier version for a MUCH lesser price as it will do all the things you need. Remember, I'm still using QBPro 2004 and I run my business off of it.
