I would pay Intuit $50 a year to not make me upgrade

Last week at the office we were talking about how annoying Quicken has gotten lately - the number of clicks per transaction has doubled or tripled, and it has stopped feeling "Quick". Maybe they've fixed that in the 2010 edition, maybe not, I'm too scared to find out. Joel Spolsky's article is dead-on. http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/fog0000000017.html Just replace "Office" with "Quicken".

In other news, the IGDA Leadership Forum this year is even better than last year's. A full report will be forthcoming.
