Moving from Microsoft Windows to Apple Macintosh - How best
artarzi
I'm moving from windows to Apple Macintosh. Would it be better/easier to get Quicken for Mac and import the data (would I lose any functionality - e.g. multicurrency) or run Quicken on a Virtual Machine? I have VMWare Fusion if that's the route.

Ok, having checked on the Quicken web site, it seems my Quicken Home, Business & Rental Property is not offered on the Macintosh platform. Since I do use the Rental Property part, it would seem like the better option is to run Quicken on a virtual Windows 10 process on the Macintosh. I will search a bit more to find out if there are problems with trying to do that.

VMWare a few weeks ago released Fusion v12 for FREE for personal use for the first time (usually $80-$99 price tag... vs Pro version that is now bumped from $149 to $199... not needed for most people...FREE version has all the same essential capabilities...no crippled software).
Check it out here:
