[Hidden-tech] Quickbooks Alternatives

[Naaz Hosseini]

Hi Pat and others,

I'd like to piggyback on Fred's question.  I have 22 years of bookkeeping on Quicken on my old PC.  When I bought a Mac a year ago, I kept my PC just for my accounts.  I'd like to get rid of the PC but not the records.  

If I switched to something like Account Edge for Mac, any ideas how I could maintain access to my Quicken for PC accounts as needed?  Or easily  transfer them to the Mac software?  The latter seems unlikely.  I don't particularly want to partition my iMac hard drive but am open to thoughts about that if there isn't another solution.

Thank you for any help.

It’s extremely flexible and user friendly to set up and allows for multiple types of businesses without someone having to know a great deal about accounting to get started.  Check out their site at  http://www.accountedge.com/mac/.  If I can be of any help give me a call.
