M2005 to M2006 |
|
|
I was reading through the new features of M2006 and was wondering if there is
anything new in it to warrant me shelling out 40 USD to purchase it. All the
stuff I saw in the description is already available in M2005.
Thanks

With Deluxe being available with the disk at Costco and Sams for
less, paying $40 is not your better move.

If you were looking for "features" then Money 2006 is probably not
for you. If you wanted different colors, it is not for you. The
best new feature is not on the official features list: it will make
multiple backups to your hard drive so that you don't continually
overwrite your good backup as many do. If you want existing features
to work better, it may be for you. A favorite example is that it
does not reload prices each time you return to the portfolio. |

If you use online banking within Money, I'm told 06 is better than 05. But I
didn't use 05 so can't compare.
