I am thinking of buying a personnal accounting system. I know there are a bunch
of them on the market and at different price...

I am mainly looking for a system which can "take care" of my differents bank
accounts, checking, saving, credit card, name it... considering that each of
them is used differently.

I am not interested in loan interest computation, or retirement plan, or any
fancy investment things... My lawyer is taking care of that ;-)

I just want to be able

- to enter my different bills, checks, credit card slip, deposit and withdrawal
- to set when they have been withdrawn or if they are still pending, or void
- what is my current balance by account and total
- what is my balance if we consider everything have been with drawn,
- define some categories of payment (PG&E, Water, food, cash, etc...)
- work with different currencies will be a big plus...


well, you got the idea.

If you have any experience with such systems, please drop me a mail.

I will sumarize if requested.
