[geeks] Personal Finance Software

[Kevin R. Marshall]

I've used MoneyDance since March of 2002 and have recommended it ever since.  I currently use it on Linux (work) and IRIX (home).  If i make a change to the data while i'm at work, i just scp the file home and vice versa.  It'll run on damn near any platform you can find.
