 Re: $2004 probably not worth the upgrade for $2003 users Good point. Still, Money isn't an application that's 100% suited to its purpose yet (splits, for instance) "Michael A.

| $2004 probably not worth the upgrade for $2003 users I stopped by a CompUSA yesterday and spent about 10 minutes trying to figure out if 2004 was worth the upgrade (I have 03). I finally decided it wasn't. The box is very vague about what's been upgraded. It DOES have a "Haven't upgraded Money in a while?" list, but nothing similar for 2003. The home page is now "dynamic" (which just seemed to mean you could read MSN Money articles on the homepage). Transaction matching has been changed in some way so it works "better". There's a credit area that gives you your credit score (with Equifax service, I assume) and some suggestions for managing your debt load. I didn't see much else. I think I understand why MS hasn't made any kind of deal out this. I think it's a VERY minor upgrade for '03 users and they didn't want to incur our wrath from a major campaign that talked us into shelling out $40 for nothing new. Looks like it's better suited for '02 and earlier versions. As it is, I'm waiting until there's a free trial on the webpage, '05 is released, or Sam's Club gets it for $15 after rebates (how I got '03). Hope that helps some of you decide. |
