[QUOTE="caribiner23, post: 344334, member: 9169"] I called Intuit today and asked about the Quicken "locking" thing. They told me that three years after a version is released, it's typically dropped from support ("sunsetted"). At this time, Intuit "locks" [I]the online component only[/I] and you basically have to buy a new, upgraded version if you want to continue downloading transactions from your bank. What this means is: (a) if you [I]don't[/I] use online transactions, you can use any version of Quicken indefinitely; and (b) if you [I]do[/I] use online transactions, after three years you have to buy a new version of the software. While the three-year thing may seem unreasonable to some, I have no issue with it. [/QUOTE]
