They do and did listen to the complaints about the running balance
being missing.
Go to the Quicken Live Community. There you can get help from other
users and sometimes a Quicken tech chimes in. Not often but sometimes.

I expect rather that over half had improvements to the Microsoft
Money converter, which was a new thing and was added later in the
cycle.

Are you implying that you have a clue?

I'm a Money convert and I'm really enjoying the patch releases. MS almost
never released fixes in between major releases unless it was a show stopper.
The only way to get fixes was to buy the next release next year and hope
someone listtened and did something about it.

So while perfect programmers would be desirable, I'm very happy to see Inuit
releasing fixes in a timely fashion.
