Default Re: Quicken vs. Microsoft Money - Which do you prefer?

I currently use Money 2005, I got it free from buying TaxCut to do my taxes. I previously didn't use the automatic download feature, but I do now as it saves a lot of time balancing the checkbook (and it keeps my wife honest in handing me reciepts). I've been using MS Money for about three years now. Although I use the auto download feature, I still enter my transactions first, then download the data, this way I can easily see if I forgot to enter something. I have enough history now that Money usually get the category correct.

I used to used Quicken, until they blocked me from upgrading. Money is starting to feel a little bloated with the 2005 version, as there are a lot of features that I don't use.
