What finance software do you all recommend for personal use? I don't think that MS Money is available for Mac, which I heard from several people that it is pretty good.

QUickbooks came with my powerbook, but I think it needs to be bought first

Thanks for any advice

I'm curious about this question as well. I'm a long time user of M$ Money which isn't that bad...and I just found on Amazon for the mac. I've tried Quicken but never liked it. GNU Cash isn't _that_ bad but not what I'm wanting.

QuickBooks isn't personal finance, it's accounting software for small business.

Quicken's the most popular, but frankly the Mac version sucks, because Intuit doesn't feel the need to debug it (What's a missing entry here and there? Pah! Decimal places? We scoff at them!).

I haven't tried MS Money but Quicken does the trick for me.

While you could use Quickbooks for your personal finances I wouldn't recoomend it. QB is geared towards small businesses.
