I've been using it. It's a nice program, but a long way from maturity. The 
main things I miss are:

1. ANY kind of charts or reports
2. the ability to assign a default category for a payee

So, if you have a hundred transactions from CVS that are all prescriptions, 
you have to go in and update every one of them individually. And the lack of 
charts is a serious shortcoming. It is headed in the right direction, but 
moving slowly.
