Appgen sells a new product called MyBooks for $99 for Linux. It's the 
same product as the one that runs on Windows and OS X. It also imports 
the data from Quickbooks 2001.

Which product? That depends on your needs. I happen to like quickbooks, 
but I haven't run it for a year. I started life as a CPA and so, I can 
do most of the things I want with GNU Cash and a spread sheet.

You can also install Quickbooks in Codeweavers Crossover Office if 
you're will to hack WINE. Or you can use quicken.

I'm getting ready to buy MyBooks and if the product informaion is 
accurate, I'll get behind it.

If you go to the SEUL web site, you find accounting software under 
administration.
