I stayed with DOS for a few years after Windows was introduced.
I still keep my checkbook in CHEX. CHEX is a DOS pgm and runs in a DOS window in XP. But alas, Win7, 8 and 8.1 will not run a DOS pgm. Even with the emulator.
I need a good Windows checkbook pgm. No, not Quicken.
Have you tried MS Money? It an excellent checkbook program. Nothing really fancy, just a good program.
Personally I loved XP when it came out. But then I'm always attracted to new shiny things. :)
I was very surprised to see
THIS LIST of discontinued Microsoft software. Scroll down to "M" and you'll see that MS Money has been discontinued as well. :( If you click "Microsoft Money", you'll see alternatives as well as MS Money's "sunset" version, but many reviewers don't like it. I still use MS Money 2005 which still works very well, but has no online access, just like the sunset version.
The list needs to be updated to include XP!
